All of the physical memory used, but nothing in the Task Manager

Hi I have windows 7 64 bit new installation as of yesterday (fully updated) and encounter a performance problem. When I look under task manager 95% of my physical memory (4 GB 3.5 GB) is used, but there is no task that uses memory. I chose to see the task for all users, and again nothing use the 3.5 GB of memory. It is a pretty clean install (auditor of virus and Skype, installed steam just) so no chance of a virus. I check my page file and it is set for the page file windows automatically scabies.

I tried many things:-all service stop I can (no change)
manually configure the paging file (no change)
Reinstalled windows 7 (problem is finally once that all updates have been applied)

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you

I had the same problem and it is solved.

a month ago my computer was sluggish and his memory was 77% either 93%, even though nothing was running. in the Task Manager for all the different processes added up to about 1.75 GB, so there was about 2 GB memory unexplained (4gig memory). I always ignored the 'show processes from all users"because im the only user on my computer, but decided to finally click i and a new process comes top of the list. Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service, this process itself was using 2 GB of memory. After completing the process, my memory returned to normal. However another thing you need to do is go to the resource monitor in the performance of the Manager section tasks and to suspend all processes of Window Media Player Network Sharing Service which are still open to slow things, and then set your very pretty.

I realize that this is maybe not the exact answer to problem for everyone, but give it a shot.

  • The Task Manager freezes, but only for my account

    I upgraded my computer to Windows 7 64-bit to 64-bit Windows 8. I noticed something that was if I opened the Task Manager, it would show a frame of stats, and that's all. The Task Manager does not block enough (he is sensitive to mouse events), but no additional data comes, it freezes. Given that there was a problem with the driver for the motherboard, I wrote chalked it up to that and will think it controlled again Asus releases an update for the motherboard.

    I connect to my RT Surface with the same Microsoft Account and noticed that the Task Manager freezes in the same way. I found that it is very strange. On any of the computers my account is running as an administrator. I checked the administrator accounts, other accounts users standard and even the guest accounts and Task Manager works very well on these accounts on the desktop computer 8 Win and the Surface RT. So somehow, a 'setting' is corrupt with my Microsoft Account and floats on any device Windows 8/RT I sign in with this account.

    Any idea on how to clarify the issue?

    Clean boot didn't do. There is potential software conflicts with a single account, and certainly not on a Windows RT device.

    Given that it was just my account I looked to for the Task Manager and found HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TaskManager\Preferences and deleted registry settings. It resolved the problem.

    I was hoping since the problem sank through the cloud that the fix would be too, but it didn't. I ended up deleting the registry key on both machines.

  • Use of the Task Manager physical memory is not not to use processes

    I have seen this topic discussed it before, but I did not understand what is happening here.

    -J' have one windows server 2008 with 8 GB or ram configured, with the limit set to unlimited and booking made 8 GB.

    -When you look in the Task Manager, I see the physical memory to 88% and the bar bed to 7.10 GB.

    -Adding all process memory usage, it is only about 2 GB.

    -In another thread, that I read that it was because he had a deadline, and hot air balloon began.

    -J' I monitor the server via SNMP and have alerted all the time that this server joined more than 90% ram usage.

    -The Guest server is correct use of the physical memory Task Manager?

    -If it is not, and is caused by the ESX host, how can I fix it to properly monitor the comment server.

    The question here is how windows works,

    You reserve memory and don't have no limits, so there is no balloon showing VMs to appear that they have high memory use when they are not actually in some cases.

    Processes that Task Manager displays is not all that is running or being eaten, I know when working with SQL, you have FEAR that can use a ton on memory, but there is no process to show.

    Best thing to do is to run RAMMAP a sys internals tool that will show you exactly what is using the memory in windows.

  • My CPU usage is at 100%, but the task manager says that nothing is more than using 01%

    Last night, I installed the updates for Windows 7 during the stop, as I normally do. He said there are four updates, and one went by pretty quickly. It seemed to get stuck on the second (even though he probably didn't want to - the blue ORB turned and the dots are moving, so I guess it's to large or slow) for a few minutes, three update took slightly less time and at the time he obtained for the release of four, I was paying attention just because I was so tired.

    In any case, I went to start my laptop (Toshiba Satellite) and on black splash screen "starting windows" with the flag/banner, he said that he needed install/configure 360 some odd updates. I had seen this before, although I do not remember how recently, so I thought nothing of it. I still don't know if it meant something significant.

    Now the problem is that my CPU usage is constantly at 100%, yet when I finally managed to open the Task Manager, NONE of the listed processes use anything more than 1%, and those who fluctuate. I can easily boot into safe mode, and from there, I have disabled the start of the process, such as taskbar support and itunes things google related, but I still boot normally to 100%.

    Any ideas? It would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm going to College next year and I really don't want to worry about finding how to get a new machine.

    Thank you!

    Hi Renae92,

    1. You have security software installed on the computer?
    2. High CPU usage occurs after the boot process?

    Method 1

    As the problem does not persist in safe mode, then it is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

    Reset the computer to start as usual

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    (a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

    (b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    (c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

    (d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails, then I suggest you run the troubleshooter of performance and check if it helps.

  • Too much physical memory used.

    Hi, am windows XP 32 - bit professional edition on machine A Dell G280 with Intel Pentium IV 2.80 Ghz, with 512 MB of Ram, out of which 10 MB, I think that is used for graphics VGA or maybe. Thing is my system uses too much physical memory even when no ongoing work on this subject... ND who, at the time, is going painfully slow. Is it possible that I can release the physical memory usage? I would like to do a update Avast Anti virus installed.

    with 512 MB of memory, you need to keep the programs that are not needed

    at the time where the value manual or value on only when you manually start them.

    do a disk cleanup regularly and Defrag the C; often drive.

    minimize Add-ons.

    maintain the programs that start when XP does a minimum or none, but keep the anti virus

    program to start with XP.

    If you have media players this auto-update automatically the value updated

    When manually update you them.

    Look in the Task Manager, how much process is running and set the columns (view).

    to show all related to memory. Find what is using a lot.

    Avast can use too or not.

    10 MB of graphics is not quite likely you have 32 or more.

    keep about 15% space free hard drive at all times or things can get real slow or not

    not work at all.

    the avast firewall maybe slowing down things or not.

    run chkdsk /f he can fix something.

    other people can respond with number and best thing to do.

    That's just my opinion and some things that I do.

  • Firefox is running in the Task Manager, but only opens a window.

    I can't get Firefox to open a window. I tried firefox-p (Profile Manager) and firefox-safe (safe mode), but nothing works to open a window. I uninstalled and reinstalled, but that solves nothing. I haven't changed anything recently, so perhaps there is a update (?) Here's what happens:

    I try to start Firefox, and the Task Manager indicates that Firefox is running. It employs about 32 k of memory, but the window never opens.

    I click Firefox again. Manager tasks indicates 2 Firefox process now. The second is to use about 4 k of memory. Running Firefox repeatedly adds additional tasks to Firefox, each using about 4 k of memory.

    After about a minute, the additional tasks of Firefox (the 4 k ones) start closing 1 by 1. I am now down to only 2 Firefox process, using 32 k and 4 k of memory, respectively. As far as I know, these processes will last forever, until I have shut them down manually. If I run Firefox again without closing the current process, it creates another 4 k process, which finally closes itself. If I close all the processes manually, I can start over from scratch. Meanwhile, Firefox never opens a window, or give a clue showing that it is running, with the exception of the processes listed in the Manager tasks.

    I deleted the one in my USER folder without change. There are a couple more in various C:\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles files, so I deleted those too, without change.

    It's a custom location. Normally, the profiles are under AppData\Roaming, I think you already know. There is a shortcut:

    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\
    

    This folder must contain a profiles.ini file (.ini file extension may be hidden), which shows the names and paths to your profile folder (s). If you check in a text editor such as Notepad, this file contains sound data?

    If this started right after an update, it could be a problem with security software, put an end to the commissioning (rules of program control) or program files has been corrupted.

    You can check your firewall and other security software for program restrictions.

    To meet possible corrupt files, I suggest:

    Clean reinstall it

    We use this name, but it isn't about deleting your settings, this is to ensure that the program, files are clean (no incompatible or exotic code files). As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

    (A) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 43.0 https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

    (B) the release of Firefox (if any).

    (C) to rename the folder of the program as follows:

    (Windows 64-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
    

    (Windows 32-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files\OldFirefox
    

    (D) to run the installation program that you downloaded in step (A). It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

    A cleanly reinstalled Firefox starts up normally?

    Note: Some plugins can only exist in this OldFirefox file. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

    • \OldFirefox\Plugins
    • \OldFirefox\browser\plugins
  • The Task Manager does not appear, nothing happens when you select it

    It is very difficult to get help. Now, I'm not sure if this is the right forum and place to be. I need help to get the Task Manager which has disappeared from my computer. I click right on the taskbar, and then click on task manager and nothing appeared. Please advise on how to find him.

    Hi disillusionedvery,

    If you're not, try to login as an administrator and see if that makes a difference.  If so, we still have a problem, but at least we know the Task Manager is here.  If you have any other user accounts on the computer, try connecting them and see if they all have the same problem or if it is limited to one account.  Your profile may be damaged and if this is the case, post back and I will provide procedures about how to fix it.

    Try pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL all at the same time and click Task Manager on the screen that appear and see if it works to access the Task Manager.

    If this does not work, let's try the following:

    Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

    , Type sfc/scannow go and let it run.  It will scan and try to the difficulty of some of your system files.  If all goes well he comes complete with no corruption, it could not repair (if it has these post of corruption here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228.

    While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run.  They tried to set itself to run at the next reboot.   Answer Yes and restart to run the program.  It will scan and attempt to resolve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a potential cause.

    If it does not, then thanks for posting error messages in the event viewer on the Task Manager (Start / Control Panel / administrative tools / Event Viewer).  Look in the system section.

    If this does not work, try a boot minimum http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135.  If the problem goes away then it's just a matter of tracking down the culprit at the origin of the problem.   Follow the procedures described in the article.  Once found, remove, delete, disable or uninstall.  Once remember to put Vista in normal status, as described in the procedures. If the problem occurs in clean mode then just restore the system to normal and reboot - this solution will not work.

    Start in safe mode with network and see if the problem is here.  A result allows us to narrow down the search for the cause.

    Do you know when this problem started?  If it has been reasonably recent, try a restore of the system to a point in time BEFORE the problem started. If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates.

    If this does not work, you may be infected with malware.  Update and run a scan complete with any security software you use.  Then, try the following programs if you do not, because they can help. I recommend you download, install, update and run full scans with Malwarebytes:http://www.malwarebytes.org/ and SuperAntiSpyware:http://superantispyware.com/ and then run a full scan of Microsoft Security:http://www.microsoft.com/security/default.aspx.  If you find something, especially something you can't delete, then after return.

    That's enough for now.  One of these procedures will be hopefully resolved or at least identify the problem.  If this isn't the case, please post back with the answers to the above questions, results of the tests and procedures that you did (including copies of errors if any found), your version of Windows (for example, 32-bit Vista Business SP2) and anything else that you think may be useful.  We will then decide where to go was from there, armed with more information and know what and did not work.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
