Open applications. Go to utilities. Open activity monitor. Scroll down until you see finder. highlight it and click the quit button in the upper left hand corner. click on quit. if you quit all other applications, finder will start up again.


You can hold down the Shift key while selecting the Apple menu icon (top left corner) which will change the Force Quit... option to Force Quit Application's name. Ensure you are using the Finder's menu bar to Force Quit it.
