										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Windows Task Manager is one of the oldest and most useful applications of Microsoft systems. It is intended for medium-advanced or professional users who want to thoroughly control the operation of their computer. It is also suitable for solving some problems arising from its use. Microsoft renewed it extensively in Windows 10 with the addition of some functions. It also included a greater integration with the system kernel and main applications. This was completed in <a href="https://www.osradar.com/top-10-most-useful-features-of-the-windows-11-task-manager/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Windows </a>11 leaving us a fascinating tool once we know its capabilities. An ordinary user usually uses it only for its best known function, such as ending a frozen application. However, its uses go much further, as we are going to show you.</p>



<h2>Access and uses of the Windows Task Manager</h2>



<p>Accessing this tool is extremely simple. Moreover, it can be done in several ways, including the use of keyboard shortcuts. Let&#8217;s review them:</p>



<ul><li><strong>Ctrl + Alt + Delete.</strong> This is the method that almost everyone knows. However, it is not the fastest because in Windows 11 it does not start directly. In addition, you will have to make an additional click to start it.</li><li><strong>Ctrl + Shift + Esc</strong>. More direct than the previous one. In fact, it launches immediately the task manager. It also has the advantage that because of the position of the keyboard, it can be run with only one hand.</li><li><strong>Taskbar. </strong>If you right-click with the mouse on the taskbar, there is an option to access the manager.</li><li><strong>Advanced user menu.</strong> Another quick access using the mouse. Right-click on the start button to access the advanced menu. There you will also find this Task Manager.</li><li><strong>Run.</strong> If you are used to using commands, press the keyboard shortcut Win + R and type <em>taskmgr.</em></li><li><strong>Search</strong>. Just type <em>task</em> in the general search engine, and you will see the access to this tool.</li></ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="790" height="686" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-39551" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task.jpg 790w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task-300x261.jpg 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task-768x667.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task-696x604.jpg 696w" sizes="(max-width: 790px) 100vw, 790px" /></figure>



<p>As for functions, as we said, the best known is to end a frozen application. Simply open the manager. Then, right-click on the application and click on <em>end task</em>.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="544" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2-1024x544.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39552" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2-1024x544.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2-300x159.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2-768x408.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2-696x370.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2-1068x568.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2.png 1366w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2>Check why the application is frozen</h2>



<p>What is less known is a function called <em>analyze</em>. This can help identify the problem. It also avoids having to terminate the application by brute force. Remember that it can result in data loss. It is available in the details tab.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="544" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2-1-1024x544.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39553" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2-1-1024x544.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2-1-300x159.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2-1-768x408.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2-1-696x370.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2-1-1068x568.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task2-1.png 1366w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2>Performance and resources</h2>



<p>This is where the <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Windows</a> 11 task manager really shines. Not only does it provide an overview of all running processes and applications. In fact, it also has several tools to effectively monitor system performance and how resources are allocated. It includes a lot of information, from the resource monitor (RAM, processor, graphics cards…). These elements offer real-time data visualization; diagnostic information with logs that you can share for evaluations; network details and other resources of interest.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="546" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task3-1024x546.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39554" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task3-1024x546.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task3-300x160.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task3-768x409.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task3-696x371.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task3-1068x569.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task3.png 1366w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2>Restarting Windows Explorer</h2>



<p>Sometimes parts of the operating system become unresponsive (taskbar, file explorer, Startup, etc.), while other applications continue to run correctly. Restarting the PC usually solves the problem. However, restarting the browser may be sufficient. The task manager has a special action for this. If you use it, it will end the task and restart automatically.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="546" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task4-1024x546.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39555" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task4-1024x546.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task4-300x160.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task4-768x409.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task4-696x371.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task4-1068x569.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task4.png 1366w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2>Windows application management</h2>



<p>The task manager is far from being the best window management tool. However, it has a couple of actions that may come in handy. To access them, you have to click on the drop-down arrow next to the one you want to manage. The ones that work offer five actions, from bring to front, maximize, minimize or end the task.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="546" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task5-1024x546.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39556" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task5-1024x546.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task5-300x160.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task5-768x409.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task5-696x371.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task5-1068x569.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task5.png 1366w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2>Online search for suspicious processes</h2>



<p>You may occasionally see unknown processes in the task manager. Most of them will be legitimate. However, if you don&#8217;t trust it, you can check by clicking on the suspicious process and activating the online search. This will launch a search in the browser with the name of the application. In addition, the search includes the name of the process. Consequently, it will help you determine whether it is safe or malicious.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="547" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task6-1024x547.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39557" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task6-1024x547.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task6-300x160.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task6-768x410.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task6-696x372.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task6-1068x571.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task6.png 1366w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2>Additional columns for more details</h2>



<p>By default, the new Windows 11 Task Manager only displays five columns when listing processes. These are: Name, CPU, Memory, Memory, Disk and Network. These are actually the most important ones. However, you can add up to six more columns by simply right-clicking in the header area. All of them can be useful in the right situation. Particularly the process name because it makes it easier to detect suspicious applications by their process name.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="547" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task7-1024x547.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39558" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task7-1024x547.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task7-300x160.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task7-768x410.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task7-696x372.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task7-1068x571.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task7.png 1366w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2>Switches between values and percentages</h2>



<p>When browsing the process list, the CPU column can show percentages. However, in the other three default columns you can change them to absolute values, more useful in some situations. Simply right-click on any process. Then go to the resources submenu and you can switch between them.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="546" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task8-1024x546.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39559" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task8-1024x546.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task8-300x160.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task8-768x409.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task8-696x371.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task8-1068x569.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task8.png 1366w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2>Discover the open application file</h2>



<p>Sometimes it is complicated to know the installation location of a particular program. The file explorer is the general option. However, if the application is in use, from the task manager you can access it in record time. Simply click on any process and select <em>open file location</em>. This will take you directly to the folder containing the executable file of the process. Works for applications, background processes and Windows processes. Fast and convenient.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="546" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task9-1024x546.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39560" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task9-1024x546.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task9-300x160.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task9-768x410.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task9-696x371.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task9-1068x570.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task9.png 1366w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2>Start the command prompt directly</h2>



<p>In the task manager, you can go to the File menu and select <em>run a new task</em> to launch the run dialog box. Most people who use this tool know this because it is one of the ways to manually restart a frozen browser in previous versions of Windows. What not everyone knows is that you can access the Windows console in the same way by simply holding down the Control key. Very useful.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="546" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task10-1024x546.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39561" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task10-1024x546.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task10-300x160.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task10-768x409.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task10-696x371.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task10-1068x569.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/task10.png 1366w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2>Starting the System Configurator</h2>



<p>In Windows 11, if you run the <em>msconfig</em> command to configure the system, you will see that the startup function has been moved to the task manager. This is the tool that allows us to configure the applications that will start at startup. The tool provides information on the impact of each application on system performance and allows you to disable them at startup. If your PC is slow to boot or runs slower than usual, disable all non-essential applications/services from startup.</p>

<p>Mobile devices and computers have been created for a multitude of purposes. In addition to playing games, running work programs or consuming content, our computers are perfect for improving <a href="https://www.osradar.com/top-10-most-useful-features-of-the-windows-11-task-manager/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">productivity</a>.

We reveal their most outstanding features and tell you why they are a good choice when it comes to getting organized. Best of all, with most of them, getting organized is completely free.</p>



<h2><strong>Todoist</strong></h2>



<p>We start with <a href="https://todoist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Todoist</a>, a classic in the world of task programs. Its main virtue is that it is completely cross-platform. So you can use it on smartwatches, cell phones and computers, no matter what your operating system is. It also has a complete web version.

<ul><li>It offers very powerful integrations with other services, such as Google Calendar or Alexa.</li><li>It is free to start using it.</li><li>Allows you to create filters and tags to better manage tasks.</li><li>Simple and powerful application at the same time. It can help you both for the shopping list and to manage complex projects.</li><li>Natural language task entry. To add an item is as easy as typing <em>Check project database</em>.</li></ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="559" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta-1024x559.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-38735" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta-1024x559.jpg 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta-300x164.jpg 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta-768x419.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta-696x380.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta-1068x583.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta.jpg 1120w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2><strong>TickTick</strong>&nbsp;</h2>



<p><a href="https://ticktick.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TickTick</a> is one of the best to-do programs we have to recommend. It shares some features with Todoist, such as the possibility of accessing lists from any device and web browser. It also offers natural language support. In addition, its applications have been developed following the patterns established for each operating system. Likewise, we highlight this:</p>



<ul><li>Pomodoro timer with 25-minute sessions to accomplish tasks.</li><li>Habit tracking.</li><li>Task organization by priorities.</li><li>Integrations with third-party services, such as Slack or Zapier.</li><li>Getting started with TickTick is free.</li></ul>

<h2><strong>Microsoft To Do</strong></h2>



<p>Since Microsoft bought Wunderlist, it has been improving the service to become a complete task manager. Today, it is known as <a href="https://todo.microsoft.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Microsoft To Do</a>. The way this service works is very similar to what we have seen so far with Todoist or TickTick. That is, lists of tasks that the user completes as he works on them. The strengths of this application are these:</p>



<ul><li>Compatibility with all types of devices. Don&#8217;t worry, you can use it on macOS or iPhone, as well as Windows, of course.</li><li><strong>My Day </strong>section. This is a section that is reset every day and makes it easy to organize your day by adding pending tasks.</li><li>Integration with Microsoft services. Without going any further, it is accessible from Outlook and allows you to add emails as tasks.</li><li>Completely free option.</li></ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="684" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta3-1024x684.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-38737" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta3-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta3-300x200.jpg 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta3-768x513.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta3-696x465.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta3-1068x713.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta3.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2><strong>Google Tasks</strong></h2>



<p><a href="https://mail.google.com/tasks/canvas" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Google Tasks</a> is a simple option, integrated with Google services and completely free. It is important to make clear that this is not a very complete tool. However, it can be very useful if you use Gmail or Google Drive on a daily basis. Among its most important functions, we find the following:</p>



<ul><li>Ability to create recurring tasks.</li><li>Integration with Google Calendar. All tasks appear in the calendar instantly.</li><li>Web access from most Google services and application for mobile devices.</li><li>Completely free option.</li></ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="579" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta4-1024x579.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-38738" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta4-1024x579.jpg 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta4-300x170.jpg 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta4-768x434.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta4-696x394.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta4-1068x604.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta4.jpg 1089w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2><strong>Evernote</strong></h2>



<p><a href="https://evernote.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Evernote</a> is not a task program. In fact, it is a complete notepad with which you can keep all kinds of records. However, inside each annotation you can add lists, tables and other contents. As if this were not enough, there is the possibility of adding reminders to any content you upload to its servers. And what else does it offer?</p>



<ul><li>Synchronization of content on any device.</li><li>Powerful search engine to find notes quickly.</li><li>Multiple methods for adding notes, such as sending via e-mail.</li><li>Document scanning.</li></ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="730" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta5-1024x730.png" alt="" class="wp-image-38739" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta5-1024x730.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta5-300x214.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta5-768x547.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta5-1536x1095.png 1536w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta5-2048x1460.png 2048w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta5-696x496.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta5-1068x761.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta5-1920x1368.png 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2><strong>Trello</strong></h2>



<p><a href="https://trello.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Trello</a> is not a classic task application. Rather, it is a platform that facilitates the creation of boards for a multitude of purposes. Without going any further, it is possible to generate a table with unique listings for each day of the week or according to the category of tasks. Within each list it is possible to add cards with diverse content, from images, lists, text and much more. To all this, we must add the following outstanding features:</p>



<ul><li>Compatibility with Markdown when adding content within each card. So it is possible to format text, add links or underline ideas.</li><li>Powerups. These are small add-ons that integrate Trello with other services. For example, there is one that allows you to send any card to Todoist. There is also one that enables access to Google Drive.</li><li>Teamwork. This is an application that you can use alone to get organized. But it is also ideal for collaborations with other users.</li><li>Reminders. Cards can be easily converted into reminders.</li><li>Free. Although some features are paid, most of the tools it offers are free.</li></ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="731" height="490" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta6.png" alt="" class="wp-image-38740" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta6.png 731w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta6-300x201.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta6-696x467.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 731px) 100vw, 731px" /></figure>



<h2>Brings</h2>



<p>We close this list with <a href="https://web.getbring.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bring!</a>, an application that will help you with one of the most routine tasks: controlling the shopping list. It is true that its only objective is this, and it does not allow you to manage other types of pending tasks. However, it is one of the best task programs that you have at your disposal if you want to create shopping lists, either for your day to day or for specific events. In fact, it has some strong points that we detail here:</p>



<ul><li>Share shopping lists with others.</li><li>Visual system for adding products.</li><li>Compatibility with most devices, including web access.</li></ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="722" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta7-1024x722.png" alt="" class="wp-image-38742" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta7-1024x722.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta7-300x212.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta7-768x542.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta7-696x491.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta7-1068x753.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ta7.png 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Hello! The <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Windows 11</a> task manager is one of the most useful tools in Microsoft&#8217;s latest operating system. Even from previous versions. Indeed, it is one of the oldest Windows internal management applications. This tool is intended for medium-advanced or professional users. Especially those who want to thoroughly control the operation of their equipment. Furthermore, those who wish to solve some problems that arise from its use. A regular user uses it for only a few tasks. Mostly to finish some frozen application. However, its functions go beyond that. In addition, Microsoft extensively revamped it in Windows 10 with the addition of some new features and better integration. Additionally, this was deepened in Windows 11. So, it is a very complete and effective tool. Read on to learn more about the Top 10 most useful features of the <a href="https://www.osradar.com/?s=windows+11" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Windows 11 </a>task manager.</p>



<h2>How to access the Windows 11 task manager    </h2>



<p>Accessing this tool is elementary. In fact, it can be accessed in several ways, including the use of keyboard shortcuts. Let&#8217;s review them:</p>



<ul><li><strong>Ctrl + Alt + Delete</strong>: This is the method that almost everyone knows. However, it is not the fastest because in Windows 11 it does not start directly. Moreover, you will have to make an additional click to start it.</li><li><strong>Ctrl + Shift + Esc. </strong>More direct than the previous one. In fact, it launches immediately the task manager. It also has the advantage that, due to the position of the keyboard, it can be executed with only one hand.</li><li><strong>Taskbar.</strong> If you right-click with the mouse on the taskbar, there is an option to access the manager.</li><li><strong>Advanced user menu.</strong> Another quick access using the mouse. Right-click on the start button to access the advanced menu, and you will also find this Task Manager.</li><li><strong>Run.</strong> If you are used to using commands, press the keyboard shortcut Win + R and type <em>taskmgr</em>.</li><li><strong>Search. </strong>Just type <em>tasks</em> in the general search engine. Consequently, you will see the access to this tool.</li></ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="930" height="902" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-36735" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task.jpg 930w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task-300x291.jpg 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task-768x745.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task-696x675.jpg 696w" sizes="(max-width: 930px) 100vw, 930px" /></figure>



<h2>Uses of the Windows 11 task manager</h2>



<h3>Check why the application is frozen</h3>



<p>As mentioned above, the most common and well-known reason to open the task manager is to end a frozen application. Simply right-click on the application to <em>end task</em>. What is less well known is a new feature called <em>analyze</em>. Through it, you can help identify the problem and avoid having to terminate the application by brute force. In this way we avoid a possible loss of data. It is available in the details tab.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="926" height="978" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task2.png" alt="" class="wp-image-36736" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task2.png 926w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task2-284x300.png 284w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task2-768x811.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task2-696x735.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 926px) 100vw, 926px" /></figure>



<h3>Performance and resource monitor</h3>



<p>This is where the Windows 11 task manager really shines. It not only provides an overview of all running processes and applications. It also has several tools to effectively monitor system performance and how resources are allocated. In addition, it includes a lot of information. Indeed, we have the resource monitor (RAM, processor…) that offers real-time data visualization. In addition, diagnostic information with logs that you can share for evaluations; network details and other resources of interest.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="782" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task3-1024x782.png" alt="" class="wp-image-36737" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task3-1024x782.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task3-300x229.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task3-768x586.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task3-696x531.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task3-1068x815.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task3.png 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h3>Restarting Windows Explorer</h3>



<p>Occasionally, there are some parts of the operating system that do not respond. For example, taskbar, file explorer, Startup, etc. On the other hand, other applications continue to run correctly. Restarting the PC usually solves the problem. However, restarting the browser may be sufficient. The task manager has a special action for this. If you use it, it will finish the task and restart automatically.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="666" height="593" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task4.png" alt="" class="wp-image-36738" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task4.png 666w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task4-300x267.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 666px) 100vw, 666px" /></figure>



<h3>Windows application management</h3>



<p>The task manager is far from being the best window management tool. However, it has a couple of actions that may be useful. To access them, you have to click on the drop-down arrow next to the one you want to manage. The ones that work offer five actions, from bring to front, maximize, minimize or end the task.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="664" height="593" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task5.png" alt="" class="wp-image-36739" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task5.png 664w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task5-300x268.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 664px) 100vw, 664px" /></figure>



<h3>Online search for suspicious processes</h3>



<p>You may occasionally see unknown processes in the task manager. Most of them will be legitimate. But if you don&#8217;t trust it, you can check by clicking on the suspicious process and activating the online search. This will launch a browser search with the name of the application and the name of the process. Consequently, it will help you determine whether it is safe or malicious.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="991" height="976" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task6.png" alt="" class="wp-image-36740" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task6.png 991w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task6-300x295.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task6-768x756.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task6-696x685.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 991px) 100vw, 991px" /></figure>



<h3>Additional columns for more details</h3>



<p>By default, the new Windows 11 Task Manager only displays five columns when listing processes. Namely, Name, CPU, Memory, Disk and Network. While these are the most important, you can actually add up to six columns. To do so, simply right-click in the header area. All of them can be useful in the right situation. Particularly, the process name. This is because it makes it easier to detect suspicious applications by their process name.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="963" height="976" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task7.png" alt="" class="wp-image-36741" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task7.png 963w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task7-296x300.png 296w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task7-768x778.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task7-696x705.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 963px) 100vw, 963px" /></figure>



<h3>Switches between values and percentages</h3>



<p>When browsing the process list, the CPU column may show percentages. However, in the other three default columns you can change them to absolute values, more useful in some situations. Simply right-click on any process. Then go to the resources&#8217; submenu, and you can switch between them.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="782" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task8-1024x782.png" alt="" class="wp-image-36742" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task8-1024x782.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task8-300x229.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task8-768x586.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task8-696x531.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task8-1068x815.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task8.png 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h3>Discover the open application file</h3>



<p>Occasionally, it is complicated to know the installation location of a particular program. The file explorer is the general option. However, if the application is in use, from the task manager you can access it in record time. Simply click on any process and select <em>open file location</em>. This will take you directly to the folder containing the executable file of the process. Works for applications, background processes and Windows processes. Fast and convenient.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1011" height="978" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task9.png" alt="" class="wp-image-36743" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task9.png 1011w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task9-300x290.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task9-768x743.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task9-696x673.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 1011px) 100vw, 1011px" /></figure>



<h3>Start the command prompt directly</h3>



<p>In the task manager, you can go to the File menu and select <em>run a new task</em> to start the run dialog box. Most people who use this tool know this because it is one of the ways to manually restart a frozen browser in previous versions of Windows. What not everyone knows is that you can access the Windows Console in the same way. To do this by simply holding down the Control key. Very useful.</p>

<h3>Starting the System Configurator</h3>



<p>In Windows 11, if you run the <em>msconfig</em> command to configure the system, you will see that the startup function has been moved to the task manager. This is the tool that allows us to configure the applications that will start at startup. The tool provides information on the impact of each application on system performance. Additionally, it allows you to disable them on startup. If your PC is slow to boot or runs slower than usual, disable all non-essential applications/services from startup.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="666" height="593" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task11.png" alt="" class="wp-image-36745" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task11.png 666w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/task11-300x267.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 666px) 100vw, 666px" /></figure>



<p>Okay, so we have seen the 10 most useful features of the Windows 11 task manager. You may have thought that its only use was to force the closing of frozen apps. However, you can see that this is not the case. Its usefulness goes far beyond that. See you later!</p>

<p>Hello! Those who manage Windows 10 usually perform various management and support tasks. Indeed, this work is to optimize the performance and stability of the computer. However, sometimes we cannot be physically in front of the computer. Therefore, it is difficult for us to perform any action. Fortunately, Windows 10 has an option to make our life easier. We are talking about the <a href="https://www.osradar.com/how-to-schedule-automatic-shutdown-in-windows-10/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">task </a>scheduler. This tool allows you to easily schedule actions on your computer. Let&#8217;s see how to configure the task scheduler in <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Windows 10.</a></p>



<h2>What is the task scheduler?</h2>



<p>This is a Microsoft tool included by default in Windows systems. It is actually an MMC add-in. That is, Microsoft Management Console. Its main function is to allow creating automated tasks at a certain time, or when an event occurs. It also includes a library of all the tasks that have been scheduled. Therefore, we will have an organized view to have a centralized control of the actions to be performed. In short, it helps to relieve the administrative burden.</p>

<h2>What is Windows Task Scheduler</h2>



<p>There are two key concepts in the task scheduler:</p>

<ul><li>When logging in</li><li>When an event occurs</li><li>On system startup</li><li>When locking the computer</li><li>When creating or editing a task</li></ul>



<h3>Action</h3>

<h2>Customizing the rule</h2>



<p>After configuring all the values, you will see the rule created and ready to execute. You only have to look for it inside the library. Now, from the panel located on the right side, you can run the rule. Also in this panel, you can delete it, stop it or export it for use on another computer.</p>

<h2>Task scheduler options.</h2>



<p>Windows 10 has introduced some variants in the task scheduler. Let&#8217;s take a look at some of them.</p>



<h3>Stop the task scheduler</h3>



<p>The goal is to reduce battery usage and avoid background processes. To stop it, you must launch the Task Manager. With this in mind, press the combination Ctrl+Shift+Esc. Once there, click on the Processes tab. Now scroll down to the bottom until you get to the Service Hosts. When you get to the Task Scheduler, please right-click on it and finally click on Stop.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1017" height="733" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/task23.png" alt="Stopping the task scheduler" class="wp-image-33105" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/task23.png 1017w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/task23-300x216.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/task23-768x554.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/task23-696x502.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 1017px) 100vw, 1017px" /><figcaption>Stopping the task scheduler</figcaption></figure>



<h3>Display a summary of scheduled tasks</h3>



<p>As mentioned at the beginning, this tool displays a library of available scheduled tasks. To see this list, just click on Task Scheduler Library. From there it is possible to manage all tasks. That is, start them, delete them or export them. Just use the menu in the right column.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="787" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/task24-1024x787.png" alt="Task Scheduler libary" class="wp-image-33106" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/task24-1024x787.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/task24-300x231.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/task24-768x590.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/task24-696x535.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/task24-1068x821.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/task24.png 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>Task Scheduler library</figcaption></figure>



<p>At the end of the day, we have seen how to configure task scheduler in Windows 10. A very practical tool that helps to lighten the administrative burden on the teams we manage. Bye!</p>

<p>Hello! Consider this scenario. You are working on your computer. Then, something goes wrong and the system stops responding. Consequently, the simplest and most apparent solution is to reboot the system. However, sometimes this involves losing work or files. Whether it is a document, a file, or a download. Therefore, it is good to know alternative <a href="https://www.osradar.com/how-to-repair-the-file-explorer-in-windows-10/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">solutions</a>. That is to say, measures before rebooting. This happens mostly when windows stop responding. Likewise when the mouse does not move. Or simply, the desktop freezes. Therefore, the solution is to restart the explorer. In fact, today you will learn how to quickly restart Windows 10 explorer.</p>



<h2>How to restart the Windows 10 explorer.</h2>



<p>It is well known that <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows10" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Windows</a> has a large number of keyboard shortcuts. In fact, most of them are very convenient to use. Consequently, the most expedient way is by means of a keyboard shortcut. In this opportunity, we will use a classic one. Therefore, nothing better than using CTRL+SHIFT+ESC. Consequently, the task manager will be launched. Moreover, without any shell action. Therefore, it doesn&#8217;t matter if the interface or the explorer is dead. Just use this combination to start the task manager. So you can restart the interface. Even if the taskbar has disappeared.</p>



<p>On the other hand, we can also use CTRL+ALT+DEL. Then select the task manager. However, the previous shortcut is more direct. But when we get there, we have two options:</p>



<ul><li>First, click on the<strong> Processes</strong> tab. Next, scroll down to <strong>Windows Processes.</strong> Now click on <strong>Windows Explorer.</strong> Finally, click on <strong>Restart</strong></li></ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="787" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ex-1024x787.png" alt="" class="wp-image-31708" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ex-1024x787.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ex-300x231.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ex-768x590.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ex-696x535.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ex-1068x821.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ex.png 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption> Restarting the file explorer in Windows 10. </figcaption></figure>



<ul><li>But, we know that sometimes Windows can be difficult. Therefore, the mouse pointer may not work at all. So we will solve it just using keyboard shortcuts. Please follow the path below:</li></ul>



<pre class="wp-block-preformatted">CTRL+SHIFT+ESC&gt;ALT+A&gt;N or Enter&gt;explorer.exe+Enter</pre>



<ul><li>It may happen that the browser still does not work. Or the taskbar does not appear. Even the process does not appear in the task manager. In such a case, run the task manually. Accordingly, press the Win+R combination. This action will open the Run box. Once there, type <em>explorer.exe</em> and press Enter.</li></ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="399" height="206" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ex2-1.png" alt="Starting Windows Explorer manually " class="wp-image-31709" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ex2-1.png 399w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ex2-1-300x155.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 399px) 100vw, 399px" /><figcaption>Starting Windows Explorer manually</figcaption></figure>



<p>Very well, in the last instance, we have learned how to quickly restart Windows 10 Explorer. A recommended action is to unclog the computer. In addition to allowing to continue working safely. See you later.</p>

<p>Hello! The task manager is a classic <a href="https://www.osradar.com/category/windows/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Windows</a> element. Indeed, it has been present in older editions. For this reason, it is well known to most users. It is well known that it is used to view and control different activities. For example, it shows the applications in use, RAM, and CPU usage, among others. It even serves to close problematic applications. Well, today we will see how to get the task manager.</p>



<h2>Using the context menu of the taskbar.</h2>



<p>The context menu of the taskbar has interesting options. To access it, just right-click on a free space. Finally, you just have to click on <strong>Task Manager.</strong></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="435" height="665" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task-1.png" alt="Opening the task manager from the taskbar " class="wp-image-31199" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task-1.png 435w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task-1-196x300.png 196w" sizes="(max-width: 435px) 100vw, 435px" /><figcaption>Opening the task manager from the taskbar</figcaption></figure>



<h2>How to get the task manager from the power user menu</h2>



<p>The power user menu is a new addition to Windows systems. From there you can access advanced system options. Well, there are two ways to access it. First, you can right-click on the start menu. Similarly, you can press the Win+X combination. Then, you just have to click on <strong>Task Manager.</strong></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="334" height="753" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task2-1.png" alt="Opening the control panel from the power user menu. " class="wp-image-31200" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task2-1.png 334w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task2-1-133x300.png 133w" sizes="(max-width: 334px) 100vw, 334px" /><figcaption>Opening the control panel from the power user menu.</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Using a keyboard shortcut.</h2>



<p>Windows has several keyboard shortcuts. Indeed, we can use them to go to different functions. Therefore, it is enough to press the Ctrl+Shift+Esc combination to go directly to the Windows 10 task manager.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="390" height="363" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task3-1.png" alt="Opening the task manager with the keyboard shortcut Control+Shift+Esc." class="wp-image-31201" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task3-1.png 390w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task3-1-300x279.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 390px) 100vw, 390px" /><figcaption>Opening the task manager with the keyboard shortcut Control+Shift+Esc.</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Using the Windows Security keyboard shortcut</h2>



<p>The old Control+Alt+Del combination has been known for a long time. Even in Windows 10, it is still valid. In fact, pressing this combination accesses the Windows Security menu. Once there, you just need to access the T<strong>ask Manager.</strong></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="754" height="579" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task4-1.jpg" alt="How to get the task manager from the Windows security menu.

<h2>Using the Windows search menu.</h2>



<p>The Windows search menu allows you to find many items. It even yields web search results. Therefore, we can also use it to get the task manager. Just click on the search icon or use the Win+Q combination. Then just enter <em>task manager</em> and select the search result.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="788" height="681" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task5.png" alt="How to get the task manager from the search menu.

<h2>Using the run box.</h2>



<p>With the run box, we can perform many actions. It is also possible to invoke the Task Manager. The first thing you have to do is to press the Win+R combination. Then run the following command:</p>



<pre class="wp-block-preformatted"><kbd>taskmgr</kbd></pre>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="399" height="206" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task6.png" alt="Launching the task manager from the run box" class="wp-image-31206" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task6.png 399w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task6-300x155.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 399px) 100vw, 399px" /><figcaption>Launching the task manager from the run box</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Getting the task manager from PowerShell.</h2>



<p>Once again, we will use the power user menu. So after pressing Win+X, please click on PowerShell.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="270" height="628" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task7.png" alt="" class="wp-image-31208" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task7.png 270w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task7-129x300.png 129w" sizes="(max-width: 270px) 100vw, 270px" /><figcaption>launching PowerShell</figcaption></figure>



<p>Then run the following command:</p>



<pre class="wp-block-preformatted">taskmgr</pre>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="859" height="732" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task8.png" alt="Opening the task manager from PowerShell" class="wp-image-31209" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task8.png 859w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task8-300x256.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task8-768x654.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/task8-696x593.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 859px) 100vw, 859px" /><figcaption>Opening the task manager from PowerShell</figcaption></figure>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Hello! Every time we turn on the computer, a series of system-related processes are started. Likewise, the system and programs start processes in the background. These processes are necessary for the system to work properly. Moreover, as the system evolves, these processes increase. Therefore, the impact on computer performance increases. Moreover, this is more noticeable in those modest computers. Well, today we will identify one of these processes. Read on to find out if Identity_Helper.exe process is a virus.</p>



<h2>Checking the active processes in Windows 10.</h2>



<p>Sometimes we notice a high consumption of system resources. This is a problem, especially for older computers. Therefore, it is convenient to be able to control these consumptions. Since it is some specific processes that sometimes cause excessive consumption. Consequently, the performance of the computer is affected. So the best thing to do is to check the CPU and RAM consumption of some processes. With this intention, we only have to open the task manager. To do this, just press the combination Ctrl+Shift+ESC.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="880" height="462" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/id.png" alt="Controlling resource consumption in the Task Manager. " class="wp-image-30307" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/id.png 880w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/id-300x158.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/id-768x403.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/id-696x365.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 880px) 100vw, 880px" /><figcaption>Controlling resource consumption in the Task Manager.</figcaption></figure>



<p>From the task manager, we can control several elements. For example, the consumption of CPU, RAM, disk, etc. It is enough to identify the problematic process and then close it. With this intention, we only have to right-click on the process. Then select the corresponding option. However, you have to be aware that some of them are essential Window processes.</p>



<h2>What is the Identity_Helper.exe process in Windows 10?</h2>



<p>Finally, in the list of these processes, we can identify some that seem suspicious. Consequently, we will look at the Identity_Helper.exe process. It is usually constantly active. It is also consuming resources. Well, you should know that this process is actually called PWA Identity Proxy Host. Likewise, it is associated with the <a href="https://www.osradar.com/how-to-take-screenshots-of-a-full-website-with-microsoft-edge/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Microsoft Edge </a>browser. In fact, it is responsible for helping the integration of PWA with Windows Shell in the browser. To check this item, just open the task manager again. Once there, go to the Details tab. There you can see everything related to this process.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="555" height="345" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/id2.png" alt="Identity_Helper.exe" class="wp-image-30308" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/id2.png 555w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/id2-300x186.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 555px) 100vw, 555px" /><figcaption>Identity_Helper.exe</figcaption></figure>



<h2>How to find out if the Identity_Helper process is a virus</h2>



<p>There is a very simple way to determine this. Just enter the process properties. With this in mind, right click on the process. Next, open the location of the file.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="730" height="576" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/id3.png" alt="Opening the location of the Identity_Helper process file " class="wp-image-30309" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/id3.png 730w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/id3-300x237.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/id3-696x549.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px" /><figcaption>Opening the location of the Identity_Helper process file</figcaption></figure>



<p>You will then be redirected to the Edge location in the file explorer. It will most likely look like this:</p>



<pre class="wp-block-preformatted">C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\90.0.818.66</pre>



<p>As you can see, it is in the <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge?r=1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Edge </a>internal applications folder. If so, you should not be suspicious of the process. It has a legitimate function within the system. On the other hand, if you are redirected to another location, it is probably malware. And if it also has a high CPU and RAM consumption, then you should terminate it. Additionally, use some antivirus programs. Okay, this way we have seen what the Identity_Helper process is in Windows 10. Bye!</p>

<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="1024" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/eco-1024x1024.png" alt="" class="wp-image-29781" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/eco-1024x1024.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/eco-300x300.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/eco-150x150.png 150w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/eco-768x768.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/eco-1536x1536.png 1536w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/eco-696x696.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/eco-1068x1068.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/eco.png 1600w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>Sometimes the system is put under unnecessary stress. We are just checking a web page, and we hear the fan running at full speed. Therefore, something is harming the computer unnecessarily. Well, Microsoft wants users to be able to correct these problems. What you have to do is to activate this mode for the particular process or task. Thus, it will limit the use of resources for the program by reducing the priority. However, the performance of the program will still be guaranteed. Microsoft explains that some applications continue to consume system resources, even when idle. This can lead to temperature increases, computer slowdowns, and high battery consumption. Generally, what we do as users is to go to the task manager to check what is going on.</p>



<p>The ECO mode is intended to give users more options to limit the consumption of some programs. The Redmon company claims that it could improve work performance by between 14% and 76%.</p>



<h2>How to activate it in Window</h2>



<p>At the moment, this option is not available for stable versions. Indeed, it is part of the Insider Preview Build 21364. In any case, here are the steps to activate the ECO Mode.</p>



<ul><li>First of all, you have to open the task manager. You can find it from the Start menu or press the Ctrl+Shift+Esc combination.</li><li>Check applications and processes that are consuming too many processes.</li><li>Select it and right-click on it. Now, from the conceptual menu, select the ECO Mode function.</li><li>Please confirm the action in the pop-up menu.</li><li></li></ul>



<p>It is a simple process. In addition, it also works to disable the mode. Okay, so we have seen how to activate ECO Mode in <a href="https://www.osradar.com/category/windows/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Windows 10.</a> A faster way to smooth the workload of the computer. And without having to terminate applications abruptly. Bye.</p>

<p>Hello! We use numerous applications in Windows 10 on a daily basis. However, these programs can fail and crash. That is, it does not respond to the commands given to it or it takes a long time to execute the actions. As a result, the system slows down and does not act correctly. Sometimes, this failure is caused by opening many programs simultaneously. Also, it can happen that the system does not meet the hardware requirements for the program. In those cases, it is best to close the program and restart it. But if the application does not respond, then it is necessary to force the task. For that reason, in this post we will see how to finish a task and force to close a program in <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Windows 10.</a></p>



<h2>How to terminate an application or program in Windows 10 when it does not respond</h2>



<p>The first step is to enter the task manager. As its name indicates, this item allows you to manage the processes running in the system. Well, to access it there are several options. In the first place you can invoke it from the quick link menu. With this in mind, press the Win+X combination. Alternatively, right-click on the Start button. Once there, click on <strong>Task Manager.</strong></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="270" height="627" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force.png" alt="Entering the Task manager from the quick link menu" class="wp-image-24685" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force.png 270w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force-129x300.png 129w" sizes="(max-width: 270px) 100vw, 270px" /><figcaption>Entering the Task manager from the quick link menu</figcaption></figure>



<p>Another option is to press the combination <strong>Ctrl+Shift+Esc.</strong> Once there, you must click on the Processes tab. Then, please select the problem app. Then, right click and from the context menu, click on <strong>end task.</strong> Another option is to select the app. And then click on Finish task in the lower right corner. Finish the task of the problem program</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="788" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force2-1024x788.png" alt="Finish the task of the problem program" class="wp-image-24687" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force2-1024x788.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force2-300x231.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force2-768x591.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force2-696x536.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force2-1068x822.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force2.png 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>Finish the task of the problem program</figcaption></figure>



<p>This process can be applied to background processes. Since, although they are not visible, they act so that the applications can work. Consequently, they can affect the performance of the system.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="786" src="//1081754738.rsc.cdn77.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force3-1024x786.png" alt="Ending a process in the background." class="wp-image-24689" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force3-1024x786.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force3-300x230.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force3-768x590.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force3-696x535.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force3-1068x820.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/force3.png 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>Ending a process in the background.</figcaption></figure>
