    turn off programs or apps running in background


    turn off programs or apps running in background - is this possible on Win 7 Pro? My SD hard drive or fan is running all the time. My computer gets warm. Can I turn off apps or prpgrams running in the background to save energy and the fan from running so much?

    :)

    Turn On or Off Background Apps in Windows 10  


    It works here too! I also noticed, turning on/off and opening Background Apps is not necessary.
    Just "Reset" any or all WinApps (one by one) and then you can find them under "Background Apps" list.

    Thanks again TechHool turn off programs or apps running in background :)

    PS: Turning Off "Background Apps", cannot affect Edge.
