Learn English – the meaning of “Put a bullet in something”

idiomsphrase-meaningsentence-meaning

I have seen this sentence in a chat between people and I guess when they said "put a bullet" they have used it idiomatically. I am not sure about the meaning though.

A : The process is over timing
B: Putting a bullet in it. Restarting

Any help would be much appreciated.

"To put a bullet" in something or someone can mean to kill the person, or end the thing. In this case, it means to terminate the "process", to stop it.
