• After that Ms last update the task manager has changed

  After that the last MS updated, the task manager has changed. I used for the right click at the bottom of the screen, select Task Manager & get 3 or 4? options to select.

  Those I used gave me a chart of the use of Internet + speed info; now, I only get the list of processes, no option & the only way out is to TAP (DO NOT TOUCH!) the ESC key.

  Is this another feature of MS or make me a form of bribery? JV

  Sorry, but I don't really know what the problem is here. In any case, try to roll back OS to an earlier time using System Restore tool. Choose the time prior to installation of update from Ms. Everything should be as it was before.

• Cannot change the priority of game in the Task Manager

  Original title: definition of priority in the Task Manager

  I run on windows 8 and I play the game League of Legends, I recently had a few FPS problems and tried to find solutions online, one of them suggested me to run the application on the highest priority. However, when I tried to change the priority of normal to another, priority does not change. No pop no ups, no errors. I clicked on "change priority" when they gave me a warning, but after that I checked again and it has not changed.

  Jerrold salvation,

  1. are you able to change the priority of other programs?

  2 are logged as administrator?

  Please log on as an administrator and then try to change the priority.

  If you are facing problems FPS when you play the game make sure you you have updated Java and the graphics card on the computer.  FPS depends on the specification of the computer, not just the game.

  Make sure that other programs are closed during execution of Minecraft and check if the FPS drops.

  
  Update the latest version of Java.

  http://www.Java.com/en/download/help/update_runtime_settings.XML Updated the graphics to the Web site of the manufacturer driver. See the article.

• Impossible to change the priority of the process in the Task Manager

  Ive recently installed x 86 windows 7 RC1 and found that when running of 2 copies of the world of warcraft (dual-boxing) + ventrilo (+ other programs scattered... Vuze / MSN etc.) that the two windows in world of warcraft suffer massively in terms of frequency of frames and responsiveness during the exchange between the windows. Ive also noticed that the system does not seem to allow any time processor, which inturn hurt speech to wind... becoming lag ventrilo and shredded when send all voice data. Ive tried to allocate more time processor for programs, but windows gives me the error "this operation could not be completed, access denied. This did not happen under Beta to my knowledge. I have not tested in safe mode...

  Now, I understand the security features of the system and believe that I have all the correct Administrator security privileges, but im still getting this error, even if I run the programs as an administrator, they still suffer small amounts of time processor.

  Ive got a system strong enough, so it's not as if there are limited resources - this has me boggled.

  Hello, ApolloFury

  I'm happy to offer a few suggestions, but you will have to go on Support of Windows 7 forums on the following link for assistance troubleshooting: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/w7itpro

  After you open the Task Manager, click on Show processes from all users to ensure that it is run as an administrator. To divide the load, set each instance in its own kernel by click right-click on the process, Set Affinity and make sure only one heart is selected. Select the other core for the second instance. If you have a second hard drive, connecting it the second instance the second hard drive should also increase performance.

  Lower your settings at least in the game.

  You can also try to choose a basic theme to disable the Aero interface.

  If your antivirus scanning on access to files, it can cause too much additional slowdown with largefiles.

  I hope this helps.

• RESOLVED: The Task Manager icon in the system tray

  I always keep my task manager running as an icon in the system tray.  After an update of software that seems to be an update of Windows XP or IE7, I can minimize is no longer my status bar task manager system; the icon is no longer present.  I have not changed the settings view in the Task Manager bar; they are all checked.  Now, I have to keep the Task Manager minimized in the taskbar instead.  [None of the taskbar settings were changed to icons in the system tray as I downloaded the SP3 for XP over 3 years ago.]  Could it have been caused by the update or y at - it a way to get the Task Manager to reduce in the tray system again?  Thank you.

  I tried all types of features troubleshooting before coming here, including a full analysis of the antiviral software from my system & checking event viewer.  I even went in the registry to see if something happened to the system tray.  BUT... The action to be performed by the most obvious and which should have been the first, I failed to do - restart.  Due to an another software update of my antiviral package yesterday, 22/02/2012, I needed to restart.  After the reboot, the Task Manager icon returns to the system tray and minimization has not caused to disappear.

  The only thing I can conclude is that something has gone wrong during the update of the software of MS Windows and installation of KB2660456, KB2647516-IE7, & KB2661637.  It was the only thing that happens so that I was with MS Paint, no browser was opened or other software packages on except what is necessary to update the files over an internet connection.  To take a hit to what it was exactly would be silly because any number of operations might have bothered with or temporarily created a small problem with the properties of the view Task Manager.

  So I chalk it up to did not not the most basic 'Fixer glitch", reboot, in my haste to find a culprit.  I hope that my blunder will remind others not not forget to start with the basics for sudden failures troubleshooting.  Thank you for your time and your advice.

  [I'm sorry; [I broke each problem statement rule with this post by do not detail what I've done, this system that I have, and what software I use and their versions.]

• Problems with the closure, by opening the Task Manager and Norton Internet Security. Help, please!

  Hello

  I have a HP Pavilion dv7 with Windows Vista Home Premium (64-bit). Until Monday, there is no problem whatsoever with my computer at all. I have not installed or uninstalled, whatever it be, changed settings, done anything differently with my computer. Suddenly it now "hangs" on the screen of closing down. I'll try to reboot or stop using the menu start, and it will stay on this screen indefinitely. Now, I have to manually turn off the computer. I spent on the Support page and studied the Performance issues, and all I get is I have Visual settings that interfere with closing... except my Visual settings have not changed in any way. In addition, I can not properly update my computer or do a system restore because the computer will shut down.

  In addition, the Task Manager will appear no more. I'll press ctrl alt del and nothing appears, just the green icon in the corner of the screen. If I try to right click, no response.

  I tried to do a full system scan in Norton Internet Security but she "leaves" scanning. It will scan correctly when I'm in safe mode, but it comes with no virus, trojan or other problem.

  So in essence, I tried everything I can think of to fix my computer nothing works. It was working perfectly before this week. I have no idea where to go. Any thoughts?

  Thanks in advance,

  G

  Hello

   

   

  Method 1.
  First check to see if there are external devices attached to the computer, if so remove and check.

   

  Method 2.

  Step A.

  Start your computer in safe mode and check if it starts.

  Troubleshooting in safe mode
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/troubleshooting-problems-while-in-safe-mode

   

  Step B.

  If it starts on the desktop in safe mode and then set your computer to the clean boot and check if it starts successfully. If it starts successfully can be a third-party application or service is causing the problem. We can use the approach 50 / 50 to narrow down the root cause of the problem.

  
  See the article below for instructions on how to start your computer in a clean boot state.

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
  Note: When the diagnosis is complete, don't forget to reset your computer to normal startup. Follow step 7 in the above article.

   

   

  Method 3.
  I recommend to run the restore of the system in safe mode and check if it works very well.
  Reference:
  System Restore: frequently asked questions
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/system-restore-frequently-asked-questions
  Note: If you use system restore when the computer is in safe mode, you can not undo the restore operation. However, you can run System Restore again and choose a different restore point if any.

   

   

  I hope this helps.

• 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

• Firefox won't work, even if current running in the Task Manager.

  We have about 5 users having Firefox refuses to open. In the task manager the firefox.exe is running. When we run as administrator, it works sometimes, but runs faster. We tried the ESR 38.2 Firefox and that worked for a day or two. I deleted their profiles and installed Firefox fresh with no Add-ons, even a day or two later, it opens. We turned off hardware acceleration, no change. The only thing I can think that I have not done is to clean the registry.

  5 users = all on the same PC?
  Or what with workstations and profiles on a server?

  Any type of configuration customized for when Installer Firefox?

• 29 Firefox fails to come out properly and continues to run in the Task Manager.

  It is a continuation of a thread found here:
  https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/997448 by Compumind.

  I pointed out that I had the same experience, especially at the opening of the email links in Thunderbird. I reported also that forced me to go back to 28 FF.

  Moses responded by top wire and suggested:
  (1) download a fresh installer of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

  (2) the release of Firefox.

  (3) rename the folder

  C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox

  TO

  C:\Program Files (x 86) \OldFirefox

  (4) run the installer you downloaded in the #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

  I followed these instructions carefully but no joy. When installing 29 FF, not only refused to leave (using "exit") and continue to run in the Task Manager up until I killed him after the opening of links in Thunderbird, but I find that he refused to come out after a simple navigation and links.

  Moses had asked that I didn't answer in the original thread, so I re-post here.

  In my view, that there is a serious bug. With Firefox 28... no problem don't except a minor that I have indicated here:
  https://Bugzilla.Mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1002089

  Yet once I am obliged to 28 FF, although I miss the nice interface and security patches, I need to have a browser that works properly. My wife never even saw the Manager of the tasks before so that's the problem.

  In addition, "guesses" made with this post, the only other thing usual outside that I do, is to have a security policy about cookies (accept by default... I make exceptions for cookies I want to keep and have several that are "allow only for the session.") I also FF the value delete history of navigation at the exit, but that takes a fraction of a second.

  I look forward to when this matter can be addressed successfully and I am able to use 29 FF (and out properly... I can't wait for my wife to follow all of these instructions and it often close manually in the Manager of tasks... or what I want to do this.)

  Good luck for all Mozilla projects. Having installed 29 FF twice and then back return 28 twice, I'll wait and see how this plays out. Please don't send me the standard "start in safe mode", 'restart with disabled modules', 'reset Firefox' stuff (the last time that completely destroyed my browser). I don't think that is what is happening.

  Moses added that there is a problem with the e-mail notifications passing by, so take your time, friends.

  I think now (temporarily) this bug or problem has its roots in "history leaving Compensation."

  I made the leap after a few game with 29 PortableFirefox and reading the blog post linked here:

  [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../997918#answer-566755]

  .. .and installed 29 FF on my previous FF28 on my box. I unchecked the "clear history on exit" which was only to delete my history, not cookies or anything else, cor - el. My setting should not accept cookies unless I make an exception. Until the FF developers find a way to do this is functional, I'll just have to manually delete the history.

  Furthermore, John99, you want to maybe privacy.sanitize.sanitizeOnShutdown set to 'False', not 'true' If you want to stop the automatic deletion of the history at the exit (attempt).

  I've been running for about 6 hours. without experiencing the bug 'suspended '. So, I can live with that for now until this bug is fixed. It should be fixed... browsers are supposed to be able to do things like that.

  On the other hand, I could find things go wrong... but so far I'm not having a problem.

  I for several hours and will let you know later if things change.

  Kind regards
