Windows 10: BSOD when running Task Manager and clicking Perforance tab

Since today I have begun getting the BSOD reliably, every time I click on the Performance tab of the Task Manager. The text of the dump screen is Stop code: SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION. I note someone posted the exact query here a few months ago but seemed to refuse to post their logs for scrutiny and so wasn't helped.

The background to my issue is that I was having an issue with the laptop camera not working with Skype and Teams so this morning I applied multiple windows updates and a camera hardware update. Mind you I didn't specifically run the Task Manager on the Performance tab before doing those so I can't say they definitely caused the issue. Now the camera works well with Skype and Teams but I can't check the PC performance on Task Manager.

The system is Windows 10 update 2004, Lenovo T440s i7 lappy. I have posted my debug files here . Hoping someone can give me a hint as to where to look without having to do a system restore.

Task manager is blank in processes tab

Hi,

To troubleshoot the issue with your Task Manager, I suggest you to run the
System File Checker to check if there's a broken Windows component in your PC.

To run System File Checker, please follow the steps below:

• Press Windows + X keys.
• Click on Command Prompt (Admin).
• Copy and paste the command below:
  
  SFC /scannow
• Hit Enter to execute the command. It may take a few minutes to complete.
  
  If you find Verification 100% complete, click X to close the Command Prompt.
• Reboot the PC for the changes to take effect.

Kind regards,

Leon

 

Task Manager not running


I have added a new task to the ones already populated which I suppose were in Win7
The new task or the present tasks are not running as there is no entry in the history or
recently run file
are there other steps necessary to get the new task manager to start up ?

 

Windows 10 - cannot add exec to Startup in Task Manager

I purchased a new computer with Windows 10 already installed. I am trying to add an exec to the startup list but Win10 will not accept it. The exec runs successfully on my Windows 10 machine if I start it manually.

Steps I've taken: Task Manager, Startup Tab, File>Run New Task. (browse to location, select.) It will start immediately, but does not show up on the list to autostart, nor does it start on reboot.

Any suggestions?
