  1. CMD processes in task manager


    I recently checked my task manager and found 4 different conhost.exe processes running in the details section. Along with this there were also 2 cmd.exe programs running and one of which was constantly appearing and disappearing. I wasn't sure if this was a malicious program and decided to do a system scan using Windows defender, Bitdefender and Malwarebytes but none of them found anything. If anyone could share any thoughts or suggestions as to what I should do please let me know.

    :)

    Unusual process in task manager

    When I opened my task manager I noticed that under non-windows processes 'Windows Command Processor' was open. I am aware this is the cmd, but it still listed this when no cmd was open on my screen.
    Further more the file location was SysWOW64 rather than the system32 folder where it opens from when I open cmd normally. Is this unusual or does the SysWOW64 version of cmd just sometimes run in the background. When I end the process it re-opens itself eventually.
    I am using Windows 10 with the Anniversary update.

  3. Task Manager overrun with unidentified Processes

    Task Manager is getting overrun with unidentified Processes
    hogging my ram and cpu . when i try to stop these it says Access Denied .

    I need tools that give me control to stop and prevent these tasks, and also beyond any doubt identify the processes .

    Alot of svg hosts etc. This is just a part of the list. There is a whole row More of these processes.
    I'm almost certain this is making a game i play crash a lot .

    Note i am using process hacker a tool i found online that gives more information on processes - that is the Task manager im using as seen in the preview.
    But even that i dont understand how to use if it was useful in this at all. I just want some brute force method of dealing with this. But willing to look around .

    CMD processes in task manager

    No restart button in task manager

    another easy way to kill tasks, download and install Winaero Tweaker(free) and theres a setting to add a Kill non responding tasks using the desktop right click menu. When you place your cursor on the desktop anywhere and right click the option is at the top of the list, Very handy and you dont have to go through all those steps and well Winaero Tweaker has alot of cool Windows tweaks. Just posting a different suggestion, Im sure your ok with what was suggested here.
