Troubleshoot Windows with Task Manager

Task Manager is a Windows system utility that displays the
tasks or processes running on the computer. To
open Task Manager, press Ctrl + Alt + Del. O Applcations tab
lists as aplica es em execu o no momento em seu computer.
A nico pedido pode realmente composta por v rias running
processes, e muitos programas que s o executados em segundo plano are
not listados (voc pode ver cones para alguns desses programas in
the Bandeja do sistema).


Note: With Windows 98 and Windows Me, Ctrl + Alt + Del will
open Program Manager, which allows you only to close
aplications. However, you can download one of the many utilities Task
Manager web.


The Processes tab displays a comprehensive list of all the
processes running on the computer. This can be
very useful for monitoring your system. The process tab
displays information on the use of the processor and memory
usage of each process. The problem is, how to identify a
process. Below is a list of some processes you can see in
Task Managers Processes list.


" System Idle Process "
" System " Windows System Process
" SMSS.EXE " Session Manager Subsystem
" CSRSS.EXE " Client Runtime Server Subsystem
" WinLOGON.EXE " Windows Logon process
" SERVICES.EXE " Services Control Manager
" LSASS.EXE " Local Security Authentication Server Service &
; quot; svchost.exe " Service Host
" spoolsv.exe " The print spooler service
" explorer.exe " Windows Explorer
" TASKMGR.EXE " The Task Manager
" Regsvc.exe " Remote Registry Service



" System Idle Process " is basically another name for the
time when Windows is doing nothing. There are hundreds of
thousands of processes that run on a computer, so you will
definitely find names of many other processes that are
not listed above. For a list of well known processes,
visit www.answersthatwork.com / Tasklist pages / tasklist.htm
You can also learn about almost any task, using it & 39; s
name as a search term in google.


Task Manager can also be used to adjust your system if it & 39; s
running slow. The Performance tab displays running graphs
of their computers CPU and memory. If the CPU usage
seems running over 80 percent most of the time, or if
the memory seems to be running higher than total
physical memory, you may want to turn off some
applications or processes.


On the Process tab, you can identify processes that are
consuming a lot of processor time. Double-click on the CPU
column heading to order the column so that the CPU CPU processes
hogging more time at the top. You can sort the
" Mem Usage " column in the same way.


On the Application tab, if you right click on the name of
an request, and in the menu that appears, choose
" Go To Process ", Task Manager will open the Processes tab
and highlight the process that runs the application. In the
Processes guide, if you click the right button with the name of a process, you can choose
you " SetPriority " and promote priority of
the process you need (or demote the priority of a different
process to release some resources) .


If you go to the Application tab and shut an
application, will terminate any related processes to
that application. Or, you can choose to terminate a
background process that you can identify. To close an
application or process, click on the name in the list that to
highlight then click the End Task button.


On the Processes tab, if you right click on the name of a
process, you can choose " End Process Tree " to kill the
process and any sub-processes started by the process.


Task Manager can also be used for troubleshooting. If an
application freezes up, you can open Task Manager and shut
down the request. If the entire system freezes up, you
can use Task Manager to shut down a process that is hogging
all the CPU time or memory.


If you spend some time monitoring your computer with task
Manager, eventually you will become familiar with the
processes that commonly run. So when you see an
unfamiliar process, you can do a little investigation to
make sure it is not a virus. For example, if you see
msblast.exe in the process list, the computer is infected
with the Blaster virus. You may be able to detect a new virus and
eliminate before an antivirus update is available.
