Windows 10: Windows 10 could be getting a new Task Manager-like app manager

Task Manager is a powerful tool packed with useful information and you probably use it regularly on Windows 10. It gives you an overview of what your computer is doing and it also displays the detailed statistics about each process.

Microsoft is reportedly working on a brand new app manager that could be implemented in the Settings app for more control over running processes.

This handy Settings app-based feature will give you an overview of the apps and processes running on your computer. There are two columns in the app—All and Running. The ‘All’ column lists the installed and background apps on your desktop, while the ‘Running’ column lists all the active processes or apps.



You can select an app here and click on “Force close” to end the process and close the app forcefully. This is useful if an app isn’t responding. Likewise, you can also click on the ‘Uninstall’ button to remove apps, including Cortana.



There’s another option called ‘Performance’ that lets you access the detailed statistics about each process. You can view the CPU, Disk, and Memory usage for the selected process.

Microsoft is working on the new ‘AppManager’ in an attempt to give the touch-optimized Settings app a much more important role in our work. At the moment, the modern app manager comes with a rather limited number of features, but there’s no doubt that new options would be added soon.

Unlike Task Manager, Windows 10’s Settings app will also send you notifications when an app uses too much memory.



This app appears to be a prototype from Microsoft and it could be integrated into the Settings app on Windows 10, so we will all have the chance to try it out at some point in the future.

Windows 10 Task Manager to Get GPU Utilization Tab

Microsoft is working on an update to Windows 10, which among several other things, adds a GPU utilization tab to Task Manager. You will be able to monitor each individual GPU in your machine, and Task Manager will give you live utilization stats for the GPU's 3D load, Video hardware-acceleration (encode/decode) load, dedicated memory usage, shared memory usage, and basic driver information such as driver version and date. For now the update is part of Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 16226; and will make it to the main-release in the coming months.

where is task manager in windows phone

First of all i love windows, <3

but

I want to ask where is task manager in windows phone :-(.

A task manager is very helpful and important app (as in windows pc).

If android and ios can provide an app similar to task manager then why not in windows phone.

I want to suggest you to build a task manager app which should show the following info

• list of all running apps
• Info about cpu usage and Ram usage (just like in windows pc)
• A button which says close all apps . Because i don't want to close all apps one by one
• Processes running in background.
• Network information (like in windows pc)

so Microsoft, are you planning to build an like this .

Waiting for your answer
