As I had indicated in my post, "the list of the applications is not complete: every once in a while I find a new one and I add to it". Here is the –most likely still incomplete– updated code of my "killer.bat" file

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq 3D Builder"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Alarms & Clock"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Calculator"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Calendar"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Cortana"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Get Started"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Groove Music"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq News"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq OneNote"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq People"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Photos"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Movies & TV"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Microsoft Wi-Fi"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Settings"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Store"

taskkill /f /im ShellExperienceHost.exe

taskkill /f /im explorer.exe

start explorer.exe

The problem seems to be caused by some applications that keep running in the background and, although their windows are not visible, when the "Show windows side by side" function is invoked, their invisible windows are taken into account and actually occupy
an area – I am pretty sure there is a name for this type of applications, but I ignore it. The fact that irritates me is that most of these applications are launched by the OS or by other applications, not by me! Anyway... I eventually worked around the problem
writing a batch file that kills all these applications, kills ShellExperienceHost (going to be restarted automatically), and then restarts explorer. Please find the code of my "killer.bat" file below. The list of the applications is not complete: every once
in a while I find a new one and I add to it.

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Alarms & Clock"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Calculator"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Cortana"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq People"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Photos"

taskkill /f /fi "windowtitle eq Movies & TV"

taskkill /f /im ShellExperienceHost.exe

taskkill /f /im explorer.exe

start explorer.exe

 

"taskkill -f -fi "memusage ge 0"" (CRITICAL_OBJECT_TERMINATION), why is it possible?

Yesterday I was having some memory issues. The computer was really laggy, so i ran:

Code:

taskkill -f -fi "memusage ge 131072""Where did my Aero go?"
Then I started to wonder, "[i]what if i kill tasks using more than 0KB (disaster?)[/i]"

Prepared for the BSOD, I then ran:

Code:

taskkill -f -fi "memusage ge 0"
"[i]WARNING: This is a critical system process. Taskkill cannot end this process.

[/i][i]WARNING: This is a critical system process. Taskkill cannot end this process."

[/i]

*insert bugcheck 0x000000F4*

Code:

I was staring at the BSOD, confused why that worked. "[i]did it terminate the
Session 
Manager Subsystem Executable?"[/i]

Is this a bug or does taskkill not care about things like conhost.exe and winlogon.exe?

Also this topic is intended to be Windows-version independent.
