• I was just wondering if raising the Task Manager causes a spike in CPU percentage used? What is the normal percentage?

  I was just wondering if raising the Task Manager causes a spike in CPU percentage used? What is the normal percentage?

  Original title: percentage of CPU

  ASJ

  I guess it depends what you mean by 'raising '.  If the Task Manager is running minimized and you maximize there should be virtually no effect.  If you ask any Manager launch tasks can be a brief rally in cpu, memory, and HD activity, but he should be back almost immediately where he was, the slight increase depends on your specifications of the system and other factors.

  Is there a reason you ask?

  

• View Manager does not load at startup (Windows 8 - confirmed activated in the Task Manager / start)

  During the recent update MDD, I can't get it to load automatically at startup.

  I am running Windows 8.1.

  I have to run it manually every time that I boot - which is a pain.

  I activate under via Task Manager startup items (oddly there are two DDMs that appears here, both are enabled).

  Any advice / help?

  Thanks in advance!

  It seems that you have installed the display manager Dell with privileges "Run as administrator". DDM cannot load automatically with this option for reasons of security, that is, it cannot start without the explicit permission of an administrator - Windows does not.

  Right-click on the MDD program or shortcut and select Properties, then cliquer click on the Compatibility tab, uncheck the box "Run this program as Administrator" and then click on "change settings for all users.

  Or just reinstall it with the "Run as Administrator" option unchecked. DDM itself doesn't require elevated privileges.

• 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!

• After the installation of 5.71 Lightroom it runs only in the Task Manager

  Hello

  I currently have a problem with Lightroom 5.71/windows 7 / 64-bit. After starting the program it is only being showed in the taskbar and the Task Manager. There is no error indicated by the program.

  Thank you in advance.

  How many monitors are connected to your system... and how many monitors is your operating system, think THAT are connected to your system.

  If it shows as active in the Task Manager and the taskbar, it is possible that it is opening on a second monitor assigned. Right-click on an empty area of the desktop, select the screen resolution... how many active monitors show (highlighted in blue)?

• Title bar on the Task Manager window is missing

  While working, I noticed that the title bar on the Task Manager is missing.  Unfortunately I don't remember what key shots that I did to make it disappear.

  I chose the Task Manager and press F11 but nothing happens.

  I passed using Windows and tried all search combinations I could think, but none of them gave an answer to the problem.

  What I've done and how to do this problem?

  Thank you

  Do you mean that the tabs are missing? Double-click on the outer border of the box of the Task Manager.

• Total memory of 4 GB newly installed does not appear in the Task Manager

  Total memory of 4 GB newly installed does not appear in the tab of the Task Manager performance. Only 3.3 GB appears. Is something wrong with the chopsticks of mem or mem from Vista 32 bit OS limit uses at this level. I have SP2.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929605

  "System memory shown in the system information dialog box in Windows Vista is less than expected if the 4 GB of RAM is installed.

  This behavior is the expected result of some hardware and software factors.

  Various devices in a typical computer require memory-mapped access. This is known as memory-mapped i/o (MMIO). For the MMIO space is available for 32-bit operating systems, the MMIO space must reside in the first 4 GB of address space.

  For example, if you have a video card that has 256 MB on-board memory, that memory must be mapped in the first 4 GB of address space. If 4 GB of system memory is already installed, the part of this address space must be reserved by the graphics memory mapping. Graphics memory mapping replaces part of the system memory. These conditions reduce the total amount of memory available to the OS System.

  The reduction in available system memory depends on the devices that are installed in the computer. However, to avoid potential driver compatibility issues, 32-bit versions of Windows Vista limit the total available memory to 3.12 GB. See the section 'More information' for more information on potential driver compatibility issues.

  If a computer has many features implemented, the available memory can be reduced to 3 GB or less. However, the maximum memory available in 32-bit versions of Windows Vista is typically 3.12 GB.

  See you soon.

• No start page, Google rises and there is no way out without using the Task Manager.

  I used to get the Google search engine at the start of Firefox, with bookmarks bar in side bars and tool at the top. Now, all I get is a Google search page, with a few buttons on the top like images, etc. There is no way to close the program without using the Task Manager. I downloaded the latest version of Firefox and installed, but the problem has not disappeared. Operating system is Windows XP Professional

  Make sure that you run not Firefox mode full screen (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Ctrl + Shift + F).

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/how-to-use-full-screen

  It is possible that the screen is too wide or too high and bars scrolling down.

  • Use Restore or expand in the context menu of the taskbar icon to set the focus to the Firefox application if you do not see the window of Firefox.
  • Open the system menu of the window of Firefox via Alt + space and see if you can move and resize the window (use the arrows on the keyboard).

  If it works, then first close all other open windows of Firefox and then close Firefox via "file > exit/Quit" to save the setting.

• The task manager has been disabled by the administrator. Is there a quick fix?

  Using Widows XP Professional, Version 2002, Service Pack 3

  Fast enough

  If you see things like this:

  You do not have sufficient security privileges to restore your system.
  The System Restore tab is missing from the my computer properties.
  System Restore has been disabled by group policy.  To turn on system restore, contact your domain administrator.
  The System Restore tab is available, but the turn off System Restore (disabled by Group Policy) box is grayed out.
  The task manager has been disabled by your system administrator.
  The registry editor has been disabled by your system administrator.
  The task manager has been disabled by group policy.
  The registry editor has been disabled by group policy.
  The command prompt has been disabled by your administrator.  Press a key to continue...

  The usual advice are something in the sense of "something has been disabled in the group policy...". ", and it is probably true that something has been disabled, but you know what something is and what it takes to do about it.

  If you are using XP Home Edition, you will get away with advice to use the Group Policy Editor, since it has no Group Policy Editor in XP Home and only
  really does not tell you where to look in group policy, even if you run the Group Policy Editor.

  You need a complete solution that works for all versions of XP and requires no hunting around in the Group Policy Editor or registry to find where things are that have been disabled.

  Unless you have disabled these things on purpose, chances are good that your system has a malware infection.  The malware knows what tools you use to try to find and remove, for the malware disables the things you are more likely to consume and prevents them from running if you can't find the malware and remove it.

  If your system has this kind of affliction, all malicious software tools you currently use or have used failed to protect your system so that you can expand your horizons malware detection and prevention to prevent these kinds of afflictions in the first place.

  The malware will be happy you trick into thinking that you need to so something drastic to fix your system - as a facility repair, system restore point or a total reinstallation of XP.  This is what it would be like you, but these measures are not necessary.

  You must solve the immediate problem of the tools does not, then scan your system for malware when you are finished.

  No matter what kind of malware you've used analytical tools, they are unlikely to solve this problem, because they cannot tell if the changes made to your system have been on purpose (you or an administrator who makes them) or some malware changed them, so the analysis tools will let these things alone (it's usually a good thing).

  If your system is afflicted in this way, there are probably other things that also do not work - like the registry editor, System Restore and the command prompt, so fix them all at once even if you have not discovered they are broken again.

  These commands from registry removes the registry entries that are stop opening programs.  Although the registry entries do not exist, these commands are safe to run and will work for all versions of XP.

  Before making any changes to your registry, back up the registry with this free and popular tool:
