    Press and hold Option key, and then right-click on the freezing app icon. Next, from the dock select Force Quit.

    If the mouse cursor is working, but Mac OS is frozen, then here’s how you can fix it:

    On the upper-left corner of the screen, make a click on the Apple symbol and then select Restart.

    Alternatively, press the Power button while holding the Control (CTRL) key, press the Power button. This will open the System shutdown dialog, select Restart from the options.
