Task Manager questions

I don't know how they did it, but my munchkins has to my keyboard. Now, when I ctrl-alt - delete to get the Task Manager, all I get is the chart of performance; No menu or tabs! I tried to figure out how to reset it to the default value, but so far have had no luck. Help!

All you need to do is double-click the grey top border (and once again will bring you back to the 'small footprint' mode).

  • 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

  • When firefox crashes of a memory leak, why you can not display the offending tab? Improvement: a task manager as Manager of the display use by tab tab / extension.

    I generally keep windows with multiple tabs open. It is possible that this causes more accidents because the number of pages multiplies any effect that the majority of users with less pages/tabs would suffer. I had problems with Firefox blocks Manager Windows that I looked into this question a lot of variables to track tasks to help. Bottom line, the accident is caused by increasing the memory usage may be caused by the flash add on which fact much IO reads at least a page/tab incriminated could some sites use flash to read my disc without permission, and there is a leak memory in a flash of code uses the sites? I searched the Web for a task manager as add-on for Firefox tabs that would determine the offending page/tab/add-on/extension. This seems an excellent idea which has not been implemented. Since I am a developer, I would be happy to implement, but would like some advice because my knowledge of your product is only at the level of the user.

    There are currently: page of memory that is actively developed. A "task manager" of all kinds is also in the works as far as I KNOW. If you want to help, your best bet is to find the bug there is Bugzilla. If you have the skills coding I can help you in touch with a mentor - let me know.

  • Portege M700-106: unable to start the task manager & programs after Vista sleep

    Hello

    In fact I am facing problem like below...
    Configuration: Portege M700-106 with upgrades (Hynix Kingston 4 GB, WD Scorpio 320 GB with jumper default config doesn't = no jumper)
    Reinstalled system from Toshiba DVD recovery, all updates possible on web too.

    However, when I wake Vista from the suspense Task Manager I think I can't start (continuous report) some programs (e.g. ThunderbirdPortable of SDHC), all other programs works well enough.

    Anyone can know the reason, solution for this?

    Thanks for help

    Staszek

    Hello

    As far as I understand, you are not able to use some 3rd party applications after the awakening of Eve Vista but other applications running ok only software Thunderbird Portable to the SDHC card.

    Well, I have come to the conclusion that the card reader can hangs after the awakening of the stand by mode or the ThunderbirdPortable should be repeated. Probably it s not a problem of Vista, but question ThunderbirdPortable.
    Have you tried to search if this is a known issue with this software?

    I would recommend this review!

  • Server 2008R2 Task Manager will not run the task

    Hi all

    I have problems with automating a task on the server 2008R2, I have a limited user on my server which account is used to run a media server (Twonkymedia) and a home automation program called "Domoticz".

    Because I don't want the user to have access to the normal system resources, it always takes administrator privileges to run the program and access to the database, because I don't want to manually enter credentials of Directors whenever this user logs that I taught on the automation of this with Task Scheduler.

    I managed to create a task that toured to launch applications with admin credentialsb (simply by using the command runas in the path did not work) but once I connect and the still as the "limited" user task that has a shortcut placed in the startup folder does not start specific applications When I open the Task Manager to diagnose errors, she appears as running.

    As I said before, CPU usage was 100% even if no demand had started. The operating system (explorer.exe) used about 60% of the CPU.

    Microsoft Security Essentials has not helped.

    In the meantime, I found a solution. After using restore system several times (not only one!), I managed to get my normal working conditions in return.

  • 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!

    If you have spelled the name correctly, then it is very likely to be malicious.

    When a Google search produces no hits or suspicious hits (the case of unsecurapps.exe), the answer usually is that the file in question is focused on the malware.
