  1. Task Manager


    In the Background Processes area of the task manager, is it normal for google chrome/Microsoft Edge to have say 5 or 6 processes. when i open it sometimes it will have a number in parenthesis but in background its almost like i have 5 or 6 tabs open when i don't, as far as i know at least.


    Is this an issue or normal, and if it is an issue, is there a fix?

    :)

    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?

  4. Task Manager

    Task Bar, Task manager and apps, all not responding, Windows 10

    step 1 worked a dream. Had earlier tried everything suggested in these forums. nothing had worked to solve the problem. The media creation tool as suggested in step 1 did the trick. - it took several hours, but worth it.

    ps. original complaint - non responding - and task manager - blank or useless.

    Why is the System process in my Task Manager always using high resources CPU and affecting...: I haven't updated Windows because if I do, many updates will not be applied, and it causes the system process to constantly use high CPU.
