  1. Task manager/startup tab


    I'm getting ready to clone a SSD and replace the HDD on an older laptop running Win 10 1809 on a core i7-5720M with 8 GB ram. I've cleaned it up best I know how short of running sfc /scannow... which I'm getting ready to do before the clone.

    I'm curious what the BIOS time represents that shows on the system tab of task manager. The old laptop is taking about 4 minutes to get to the log in screen and yet the BIOS time says 2.5 seconds.

    Contrast that to another newer laptop running Win 10 1809 on a core i7-7700HQ with 16GB ram and an m.2 SSD drive, that shows 5.1 to 5.3 seconds BIOS time and yet takes about 10-12 seconds to get to the log in screen.

    :)

    Startup tab in Task Manager empty??


    Hello, I've been on 10 Home since the 29th (Lenovo Flex 2 laptop) and my Task Manager > Startup tab is empty. I have all the programs on my pc that were on it before the upgrade (from 8.1) and I have added a few since then but the startup page just has a greyed out "there are no startup items to display" showing. I just recently installed Chrome and I'm certain that it should be there. Anybody have this??? Comments/ideas please, thanks Mark

    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?
