Windows 10: task manager win 10 "general error trying to start process"

When I click "restart" for a process running in task manager, it throws a message "general error trying to start process". The process continues to run. The error dialog does not show an error code. I can terminate the process normally but the restart command does not work. I have run sfc/scannow and DISM with no effect. Suggestions?

*SOLVED*Where can I get Task Manager for Windows? NOT process Explorer.

Hello and Happy New Year,

I have run win 7 64B since it's release, and as long as i can remember have had Task Manager replaced with "process Explorer" , but now that I am Trying to get accustomed with Windows 10 I am having a problem. I Used to be able to just go into msconfig and edit My start-up item's, but in Windows 10, it points You to the task manager....well since I upgraded from Win 7 it kept the Process explorer version, which Doesnt seem to have support for editing start up items/programs. So i came to the conclusion that I need to re-install the original task manager, but I haven't been able to find it. Can someone point Me where to go, or possibly how to re-enable it , IF it is indeed still on My PC?

Thanks in advance for any relevant information.

I trid to find a thread already in existence on this topic, but all TM threads I kept coming up with where necro's..

Regards

 

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?

 

Task Manager - Memory Compression Process?

Hello,

In my main system I have a process going that I don't understand. I have 2 computers sitting side by side and when I located this anomaly in my main system, I checked my 2nd system and it showed a different set of information.
I will post the screen snaps here below of each.

This first one is from my main computer I use continuously.
This image shows what seems to be nothing going on with the Memory Compression and I wonder why it is even in the task listings.







This second one is my Security Surveillance system running 24/7
It definitely shows a different set of memory numbers on this image of the Memory Compression. Much more then the above image.








Do I need this listing in my system. In the main system task it looks like it is doing nothing, yet in my security system computer, it has much more information given. What does this task do for the computer?

Thanks for your time
