stopping services in Task Manager

• Need a list of what I can stop using the Task Manager to help play games that are hanging up or jump or stopping programs.

  I know how to stop most of the programs running in the back ground by using the Task Manager and the process tab.  But, I click "Show processes from all users" list is double what it was.  I need a list of what I can finish process without going through the computer off and restart or with on dreaded blue screen.  So I ask if anyone has a list of processes that are sure to stop?  Thanks in advance, Frankster195

• When I open Firefox a video of two girls shopping and a guy on a phone replace the icon until I have stop with the Task Manager. A normal icon returns when it reopened. .

  When I open the Firefox browser a normal icon appears for a few moments and then is replaced by a link to a video. When I played the video it shows two young women shopping and a young man talking on his cell phone comes and seems to describe the choice of girls at the shopping to someone on the phone. The girls look concerned, and the message seems to be something about privacy. It is a bit odd and ends abruptly. Initially, I assumed the video was published by Firefox, but I'm not sure. It has been on my computer for months. Sometimes I can go to Firefox and see a normal homepage, but usually, that is quickly replaced by this. If I go on Manager tasks and 'end task' to Firefox, I can then open the Firefox browser and it will be normal with just the icon of Firefox and no link to the video.

  What does that mean? This video is supposed to be on my Firefox browser?

• When I close Firefox, the window closes, but the Firefox.exe process and the plugin container continue to run in the background and should stop using Windows Task Manager.

  This happens frequently. Something in Firefox continues to operate even when the program is closed. The process must be stopped before I can open Firefox again.

• Thunderbird is stuck in the loop. Can not stop in the Task Manager.

  links will not open in thunderbird. I followed the instructions in this link: http://www.ghacks.net/2013/01/20/fix-for-thunderbird-not-opening-links/.
  After you set the 3 True values, I left and restarted thunderbird.
  I then clicked on a link in an e-mail message and the LAUNCH APPLICATION box appeared.
  I accidentally entered "thunderbird" instead of "firefox".
  When I clicked on the link in the e-mail, it goes into a loop where the hourglass icon will flash constantly.
  I couldn't go back to the LAUNCH APPLICATION window to change.
  Then, I deleted the Thunderbird folder in program files and reinstalled thunderbird OK.
  Everything works fine until I click on a link in a message. He then goes into the loop, and I have to restart.
  Is there something in the registry that I can change to fix this?
  Thanks for any help you can offer.
  Kind regards
  Geoff Wight

  Go to the menu Tools (alt + T) > options > attachments and delete any reference to Thunderbird.

  Change the preferences to their default values. by https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Hyperlinks-in-Messages-Not-Working#w_check-for-an-incorrect-preference then you can read any article that the incorrect pref is usually only a question after using the Thunderbrowse add-on.

• my Windows XP sp3 laptop completely stops working (tight) when plugin - container.exe is running. If I stop using the Task Manager, everything works again. Please advise as my addons arnt work not at all?

  Windows XP sp3 on a dell inspiron 1000 laptop siezes place completely after the launch of firefox 5.0.
  Ive always had the same configuration and update of firefox I'll.

  The "silver bullet" is to disable out-of-process-plugins, that could cause Firefox to crash instead of only the process that causes a problem.

• Desktop does not - black screen with the cursor and access to Task Manager

  Well, I played recent MMO and to do this, I had to update my sound drivers and graphics. I managed to finish my first uninstall all the old drivers-flawless and it worked perfectly thereafter with no video issues (that I had before the uninstall, but nothing harmful to the system). Eventually however, I started to get some pop ups Windows 2008 C++ REDIS saying that atieclxx.exe had asked to be terminated in an unusual way. No problem, I close the error message and everything always works as it should. No random crashes.

  My problem is that wermgr.exe (I am fairly certain that this is the title, but I did not work right now), began leaving me with a black screen and the cursor when I connect. In most cases, I can open the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Delete, however, it sometimes won't start, and when I start to kill unnecessary tasks, they take some time to die. I know that black screens are often a defective start of explorer.exe, which manages office and file, browsers so I use the Task Manager to run it and it dies or continues to do nothing without making the office. Whenever this happens, wermgr.exe was running (Windows error handler). When I kill this task, which often has duplicates, I can finally get explorer.exe to load. I have the same problem with safe mode, except that the display shows the version of windows and the details in each corner until explorer.exe load finally. I've also had freezing issues long whenever Werfault.exe jump upward and the only thing that those fixed has been disable Werfault.exe in the services menu.
  It is clear to me that the windows error reporting programs consume a lot of the capacity of the CPU of my computer and they are probably the source of the biggest problems I'm having. I should stop start, or they are just neutral, awakened by a bigger problem?
  On a smaller note, C++ error is probably due to me not having is not the correct edition of the redistributable C++ installed, or perhaps too many distributions. The last edition, I have installed is 10.0.40219 of the x 86 and x 64 redistributable and runtimes (2010). Are the oldest, I installed some updates ATL and 5 2005 Redistributable (2 x 64 versions). Atieclxx.exe is the program having the pop-ups demand 'unusual termination. " The version of my ATI Radeon drivers are included in Version 2012.1116.1515.27190 of the AMD VISION Engine Control Center.
  Now, finally, I think it's useless, I'll give you my specs:
  OS: Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit
  Processor: AMD Athlon TF-20, 1.60 GHz
  RAM: 3.00 GB
  Model: Acer Aspire 5534
  BIOS: InsydeH2O V1.12
  Graphics card: ATI Radeon HD 3200, using aticfx64.dll and aticfx32.dll
  I do not believe that a reinstallation is necessary, because I got my computer in good enough condition that I can write this message and use it as usual, however, it's a nuisance to do, because it requires waiting a few minutes while the wermgr.exe process is stopped by the Task Manager.

  HiJack This help "fix selected", I removed the SmartShopper and BHO entry no name, as well as a few more suspicious looking files and those to the left of the old installs (windowblinds). I also deleted all entries in ø16 because I didn't need them and didn't like their operation. Then, I deleted two mistakes of R3, who looked extremely suspicious.

  IT'S FIXED NOW!
  I restarted and connected to be greeted with my office. The second csrss.exe is still underway, and atieclxx.exe works well as well. Although they appear to be the cause of the problem, because I am intimately familiar with the process of my computer, it is also clear that many of the comes from problems of registry and the programs that I have only half managed to uninstall. I hope this helps people to the problem in the future, and if my problem recur soon, I will return to this article with more information.
  As a final note, I was extremely impressed with HiJack this, because I used it for the first time in order to solve this problem. He kindly explained to me why he alerted me and what kind of problems listed that would cause a lot of things helped me to decide what to remove. Now I know why divert this is recommended everywhere on the internet as a diagnostic tool.
  To not appear as an advertising bot, but it's the tool that solved my problem for this, I have it suggests. in any case, good luck and I hope you can fix this problem yourself. With the help of google, an open mind and careful decision making, it is possible to solve anything. I do not recommend using a shotgun to do so ;)

• As an administrator why is it when I want to restart a service in the task manager that has stopped, getting the access denied.

  For security, Windows Vista and later does not execute administrators has full administrator rights. In some situations, it is necessary to start the program that you want to use with privileges to administrator, right click and select "run as Administrator".

• Winmail.exe does not stop after that that it is closed. Need to open the Task Manager to close then open winmail?

  Can not stop winmail.exe even if it is closed with the x. The next time it tried to open there is a note saying winmail.exe is still running. You must then open the Task Manager to close. Then it opens normally. Happening at each stop down but at least after every 3rd or 4th time.

  I do not have itunes, so I don't know where you can find it from Windows Task Manager.
  Click on process tab > scroll to find (if you know its name), until it clicks > click on end process down to the right.

  Alternatively, here is another way...
  Click on Services tab > click Services at the bottom right > uac prompt > now scroll to find itunes. I don't know how it's called. No doubt itunes.exe > if you find it, click on it > looks to the left, click on stop.

  usually in the earlier version as 28, so I end the process "firefox.exe" task manager and run back the firefox, it will restore the tabs normally I opened (websites that I had until I stop the firefox.exe)
  But now that more recent versions, not give me this feature, restore session screen becomes white and I drop my open sessions.
  I have to use the history to restore the sessions that I lost,
