Link to performance tab in task manager

Hello,
Is there a way to immediately link to the performance tab in task manager? Using taskmgr.exe always starts in processes tab.... I would love to be able to create a shortcut that links to the perfomance tab for quick access.
Thanks.
Willem

Hi willwmdhae,
What is the main purpose of this operation ?
I have no idea of changing the default process tab to performance tab of task manager. But we can create a shortcut to open the task manager directly. The taskmgr.exe is located in
C:\Windows\System32 folder. We can create a shortcut to open the task manager directly.
Apart from this ,there are several ways to open the task manager in Windows 8.1.
1. CTRL + ALT + DEL key (The usual way)
2.CTRL + SHIFT + ESC( Windows vista and higher version)
3.Right click the taskbar and choose “Task manager”
4.Right click the Win tab (Win+X) and choose “Task manager”
Best regards

  • Changes to selected columns to display in Details tab in Task Manager are not saved during a reboot

    I use Task Manager on Server 2008 R2 to monitor performance. I have added several columns to the Processes tab using View..Select Columns. I have added CPU time, I/O read/write/other bytes, etc.
    The equivalent in Server 2012 is the Details tab. I figured out how to add these same columns - right click on the column headers, and choose "Select columns". This is not obvious by the way.
    However these selections are not persistent across a reboot. So every time I reboot, I need to add the columns back to the display. That is not the case with Server 2008 R2 - they are persistent.
    I am using a domain administrator userid, but not using roaming profiles.
    This is a retrogression vs. Server 2008 R2. Can it be fixed?

    Hi,
    I meant that both the added columns of Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Serve r2012 RC are persistent.
    You may install a new Windows Serve r2012 RC to check the symptom.
    Currently, you may perform a System File Checker (SFC /Scannow) to check the result.

  • What is "Uninstalled Processes" in the App History tab in the Task Manager?

    In the App History tab in Task Manager there is an entry for "Uninstalled processes".  It
    hasn't used much CPU time but it use too much from network. I scanned my PC by BitDefender [full scan] but it didn't remove and also i tired to reboot my PC but it's still there! and it's still taking from my network.
    What is it???!
    Screenshot,
    http://i.imgur.com/MeyjyxD.png

    Can you please go through the list of Apps. Did you install any new Apps which looks like consuming too much network bandwidth?
    Also from the screenshot, I see lot of programs on the desktop. I recommended uninstalling software cos I see lot of programs on the desktops related to system maintenance. Wondering if any of these programs is responsible for the process.
    I apollogize for not able to point out to a single culprit. This is one of the cases where you have to try uninstalling programs one by one and check if it removed the process.

  • Multiple instances of Internet Explorer in task manager using 100,000 KB+ memory

    Hi! I recently got a virus on my computer that causes multiple instances of explorer.exe and iexplorer.exe to appear in my processes tab of task manager. Over the course of about a minute, the memory usage of each begins to climb rapidly until all of my
    memory is being used by these. These do not appear in my applications, nor do they actually open up an internet explorer window. When I end task on them, another one appears about a minute later to take its place and do the same thing again. Additionally,
    when I click shut down to turn my computer off, various advertisements flash on my screen for a few seconds before the computer begins to shut down. When the computer is started up, a window appears for a split second that contains only blackness. I have never
    seen this window appear before the virus was obtained. When I end task on all my explorer.exe and iexplorer.exe applications at the same time, my desktop vanishes, but it also stops those applications from reappearing.  This virus has caused my computer
    to run unbearably slow. I have tried Spybot S&D, Exterminateit, AVG, Roadkill, and other methods and nothing seems to detect this or cure it. I am not that good with computers, but I am dying for help on the matter! If you can assist, please let me know
    what I can do with detailed instructions for my sake! Thank you!!!!!!

    See and follow Andy's excellent advices.

  • Mac OS X equivilant to Windows Task Manager?

    Hey all,
    I'm wondering if Apple has hidden away a secret (or hard-to-find) task manager-like utility for this great operating system? I tend to use it a lot under Windows, and, just for curiosity's sake, would love to know if OS X has something similar.
    Just so all of you know, I have tried terminal commands such as top, which is somewhat similar, but less... graphical.
    So yeah, if anyone knows anything, this would be great!
    Thanks for your time!

    Or if you just want to see applications that are running as you would under the applications TAB in task manager then just click on the apple menu and then force quit (or CommandOptionExcape) and it will come up with all programs running and will tell you if there are any not responding. But definitely Activity Monitor if you want to see everything that is going on as Neil said.

  • Catch the process terminate from the task manager

    Is there a way to catch the event of terminating the application from the the
    processes tab in task manager?
    I have created desktop app, and if a user termintates the app in the task
    manager, I'd like to be notified. I tried windowclosing in windowlistner, but nothing seems to be
    working for an improper shutdown of application.
    Thanks in advance

    Have you tried adding a shutdown hook? There alot of subtleties to a shutdown hook. You can read the documentation for

  • Firefox froze up. So I removed from computer and reloaded. If I close Firefox, can't restart by clicking on the icon. Have to end process in Task Manager. It then starts. Some links on some web pages won't work.

    Hi,
    As I say in the question I don't know what happened but Firefox just stopped operating and then became erratic. So I removed the firefox programme from my computer and reloaded Firefox.
    It now runs normally but I can't run Firefox on two tabs, only one, and if I close it down during a session I can't reopen it using the desk top icon. I go to task manager, processes, and end process for Firefox - then I can start it using the icon on the desktop.
    I have also noticed that some links on a web page won't work - javascript is involved.
    Thanks for your herlp,
    Mike FD

    It sounds like you are getting in a hurry.
    If you force Firefox to close in a hurry, then it won't normally start until you re-start the computer. There are ways around this, but I'm not going to go into them right now.
    None-force way to close Firefox down: Close the program and wait. Do something else. Firefox appears as if it is closed, but it's not. Firefox cleans out cookies and it's cache after you close it. That takes a few minutes. You can't restart it while it's doing house cleaning.
    After it is done, then you can restart Firefox normally. You can watch it in the Task Manager.
    The same applies if you are installing javascript. You have to wait a few minutes.
    As for running it with multiple tabs, I usually have 5 or 6, or more, tabs open at a time. Have no idea what the problem is there. Firefox needs special permission by use of a pop-up option to close with multiple tabs open.

  • Thunderbird occasionally opens links in Firefox; some open, most do not. Each click on a link produces a new Firefox.exe in Task Manager, Win. 7.

    I have tried all suggestions in articles relating to 'links in Thunderbird not opening in Firefox.' None of them work.
    The issue is, one link will usually open if it is the first time I click a link in Thunderbird. After that I cannot open any links to Firefox, and each click on a link in Thunderbird (including the first one) produces an additional firefox.exe in Task Manager (see image). Each of these Firefox iterations are generally 49,000+K. They do not seem to interfere with Firefox's operation.
    I also cannot right click to 'open link in browser.' Only copying link location and pasting it into the browser is working for me. this has been fairly recent with the last two upgrades to Thunderbird.
    Any suggestions?

    This is a Thunderbird forum but there should be an option to open in a new or existing window or tab. You might ask over in the Firefox forum for more details.

  • Oracle Enterprise Manager "Performance" tab  (Oracle 10g)

    Hi,
    How to I make a report based on Performance TAB.
    View Data -> Historical
    Sessions
    Runnable Process
    Active Sessions
    Instance Disk i/o
    Instance throughput
    Explain : What is (example :*what is session for?* ) , What is X and Y (example :*what is X = Y= Time and date*)
    Please reply.. I need it by today.. :(

    The help file explains it a lot better than I can... therefore:
    Interpreting the Host: Average Runnable Processes Chart
    If you have opted to show both the CPU cores and CPU threads,
    consistent values somewhere between the two line values may
    indicate that too many users are waiting in line for CPU time.
    Compare the values with those of CPU Used in the Average Active
    Sessions chart. If the sessions value is low and the run queue
    length value is high, this indicates that something else on the host
    other than your database is consuming the CPU.
    If you have selected Memory Access mode, the Host chart does
    not initially display historical data, except when the screen was
    loaded recently and cached historical data is still available. Host data
    is cached starting from the time the screen was first accessed,
    and gradually fills the history on the Host chart.
    Interpreting the Average Active Sessions Chart
    The Session Count is computed by categorizing the time
    that all active sessions consumed in the last sampling interval
    into different wait classes, summing the amount in each wait class,
    and dividing it by the sampling interval. For example, If there
    are 3 active sessions in the last 15-second sampling interval, and
    each session spent half of the time (7.5 seconds each) on CPU
    and half of the time idling, then 3 x 7.5 / 15 = 1.5 active sessions
    on CPU appear for that sampling interval.
    Compare the peaks on the Average Active Sessions chart with those
    on the Instance Throughput charts. If the Average Active Sessions
    chart displays a large number of sessions waiting, indicating internal
    contention, but throughput is high, then the situation may be
    acceptable. The database is probably also performing efficiently if
    internal contention is low but throughput is high. However, if internal
    contention is high but throughput is low, then consider tuning the database. Selecting Memory Access Mode for Slow or Hung Systems
    You can click the Monitor In Memory Access Mode link in the Related Links section to enable Memory Access Mode. The Database Performance page reappears with a Disable Memory Access Mode button and a Switch to SQL Access Mode button in the upper right corner.
    You can temporarily disable Memory Access Mode by clicking this button, upon which the Database Performance page reappears in SQL Access Mode. To reactivate Memory Access Mode, click the Monitor In Memory Access Mode link again, then click Enable Memory Access Mode when the Database Performance page reappears.
    In Memory Access Mode, performance statistics are retrieved directly from the Shared Global Area (SGA) using optimized/lightweight system-level calls as an alternative to SQL. Memory Access mode avoids the computation associated with parsing and executing SQL statements, thereby making it ideal for severe cases of library cache contention that can prevent the instance from being monitored in SQL Mode. You should switch to Memory Access Mode for slow or hung systems.
    Pages in Memory Access Mode contain data sampled at a higher frequency than pages in SQL Mode. (Charts may appear to be slightly different from SQL mode for this reason.) Consequently, Enterprise Manager provides better information about where events begin and end, and can also handle short-duration events that might otherwise be missed.

  • Win7 "Task Manager" has lost its header tabs

    Somehow the task manager has lost the header tabs to move from applications to processes to network. It was there originally.
    I also lose from time to time my volume control icon, and it doesn't become hidden, it just disappears completey. To change the volume I have to either go into the control panel/sound and then adjust the volume and leave that open if I need to turn it down. OR reboot and it sometimes comes back.
    When I go to 'notification Icons" in control panel the icon and lettering for sound icon is not bold or high lighted but instead it is diminished. I have also seen a popup stating that modification will take affect when it (the sound) is activated as a pop up, but can't remember where I saw that happen. 
    Another question I have is...
    Ihave only one machine, my C:drive has Vista ultimate, all important files are on E,F HD's, removable, or external drives. I downloaded Win7 and burned a disk.
    I removed the 40Gig C: with Vista  put a 250Gig drive in that location and installed Win7. So far so good and am very pleased with everything even with a few bugs.
    Now I needed to go back to the Vista drive, so I removed the Win7 drive, reinstalled the 40Gig as C and received a prompt stating that ? win logon was not found. So I got the Vista DVD and did a repair which worked. If Win7 doesn't get an update to operate past August 1st and I go back to the 40Gig Vista drive will that happen again? AND where does that file get stored when you originally install? Does it go into the bios chip? Only becasue when I went back to the Win7 HD I got virtually the same prompt for that other drive.
    I am in the process of building another machine, but because the computer I'm currently using is antiquated in comparrison and all new parts are required except for the chasis the cost is setting me back a bit. Maybe when I do get everything I'll be able to do a dual OS, but for now I have what I have. Computer is an old dual xeon with ata drives going on 7yrs old, but has been a work horse and needs to go to pasture.   

    In addition to what Techoutsider said, you can open the Notification Area Icons control panel item and you can try clicking the "Restore default icon behavior" link near the bottom of the window and see if that fixes the MIA volume control.
    Your issue with swapping the hard drives may have something to do with the BIOS. Namely, it may not have correctly registered the replaced drive the first time you rebooted. You may want to try going in and making sure that it's where it should be in the pecking order. If it's expecting the 40 GB HDD, and it suddenly finds a 250 GB HDD, that could be the reason why you're having difficulty booting. Simply removing the drive and swapping it out should not cause it to become unbootable unless something changed within the BIOS settings. Given the drives you've got there aren't identical, there may be an issue with the BIOS not finding the correct drive. Make sure you update the BIOS settings by going in and then saving while exiting.
    For the record, NO OS writes ANYTHING directly to the BIOS. The exceptions to this would be the utilities you get with your motherboard that allow you to tweak settings (overclock) your components - such as Nvidia's NTune applet. All Windows files get written to the hard drive. As long as you didn't change anything, it should be able to find everything as it was the last time the hard drive was plugged in.
    According to rumors and such, there should be an RC build available almost any time now. There have been rumors to April 10th - or 1 week from this writing - and there have been rumors to some time in May.

  • Having more than four tabs open causes Firefox to become non-responsive, lagging for sometimes up to 5 minutes and can't close it without task manager.

    If I try to open a fifth tab, or try to pin a tab Firefox mutes, or whites out and the mouse freezes. When this happens the title bar states that it is, "unresponsive." I either have to wait until it starts moving again to restart it because I have no close button, and this takes up to 5 minutes and sometimes even more, or I have to crash it using the task manager (ctrl + alt + del) when it takes longer. Also, any time I try to pin a tab it does the same thing with a single pinned tab. If I try to open firefox after a crash, it immediately becomes unresponsive for an even longer time.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Firefox runs in background (appear in Task Manager Processes Tab) only and does not appear on Desktop

    I have been using Firefox on my Desktop PC with Windows XP for a long time. However, today possibly due to some virus (I attached an infected flash drive to my PC) a suspicious change in homepage (www.delta-homes.com) of my firefox occurred. Simultaneously an error message of "WinZip" appeared on screen. I figured that there must be some software in "C:\Program Files\" which is also causing problem to my firefox. I opened Program Files and removed that folder named WinZip. (Tried to uninstall it but it won't happen so I had to use "Unlocker" to kill processes this folder was associated with and then deleted the folder.)
    From that point onward, My FireFox started to behave weird. Whenever I click on Firefox icon or access firefox.exe from any source (start menu, quick launch, program files, Run Command), it starts but appears only in "Task Manager Processes Tab". In that Processes Tab, firefox.exe is continuously using 50% of CPU but it does not appear on Desktop at all.
    To go a step further, I uninstalled firefox and tried to re-download from Firefox official website but the download fails in the start saying "Download is interrupted". (See attached Image). So I downloaded a previous version of Firefox (v 34.0) from www.filehippo.com and installed it but the same problem is happening with this version too.
    I am confused and surprised what might be causing this problem. Everything else on PC running fine. Kindly help me restore my Firefox so that I may not lose any precious Bookmarks, Settings and other Data. thanks
