Show java app name in task manager

Right now if I run 10 java apps in seperate JVMs, it shows 10 copies of java.exe in the task manager on Windows NT/2000.
Does anyone know a way to change the image name when I launch my java apps, or a simple way to create a java "application" for windows (for example, NetBeans shows up as Netbeans.exe even though it is a java app).
Thanks!

Turns out you can copy java.exe to anyname.exe and execute anyname.exe just like java.exe.
DOH!

I updated win7 and now I cant see ff. I have reinstalled it 5 times now. It shows it is running in task manager but it is not visible on the desk top.

I installed win7 ultimate and then ff. ff worked fine until I installed win7 service pack 1 and all the other updates it recommended. I click to open ff and nothing happens. I look in task manager and it shows it is running. It is not visible on the screen or in the task bar. I have reinstalled a fresh download of it 5 times. I even tried the beta version but still the same problem. I can use explorer and chrome ok but not ff.

The "System Tray" is located at the very bottom right of your screen and is a list of most/all running applications that will show in this list.
For your SysFader issue, this "may" be the problem:
1 Find the "My Computer" desktop icon and right-click it. A pull-down menu will appear. Select "Properties."
2 Click on the "Advanced" tab. This will load a new page of options.
3 Select the "Visual Effects" tab at the top of the window and deselect "Animate Windows when minimizing and maximizing," "Fade or slide menus into view," "Fade or slide Tool Tips into view" and "Fade out Menu items after checking."
4 Click "OK." This will remove most if not all of the Sysfader effects, at the same time correcting related errors that used to come up during opening a new file or program.

Firefox crashes on shutdown, shows not responding, must use task manager to end task, windows says problem is with container.exe file

whenever i decide to shut down firefox, i click on the x in the first tab and it will not shutdown the program. i must go to task manager to close the program. i get an error report that says there was a problem with add-on container.exe. i have looked in my add-on list and i see no container.exe there. where is it coming from and how do i get rid of this problem. i have even tried to shutdown the program with the x in the upper right corner and it does the same thing. i have recently updated firefox and it still does the same thing.

Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause
Firefox issues. '''Disable All of them.'''
Start '''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Firefox in Safe Mode]''' {web Link} by holding down the '''<Shift> ''(Mac Options)'' ''' key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

My itunes will not open. It shows to be open in Task Manager but will not open.

I have tried the Quicktime Fix that was recommended but it did not help. I also cannot shut down the itunes process in Task Manager.

Doublechecking. Have you worked through the following troubleshooting document?

Tell us what problem you are trying to solve
instead of asking how to implement how you think it should be solved.

I close Firefox and then try to shut down my computer, but Windows says that Firefox is still running. It does not show up as running in Task Manager. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times with same result.

I have also had problems starting Firefox. I click the icon and nothing happens. That problem is intermittent. The Windows message that Firefox is still running after I have closed the Firefox browser keeps occurring and I do not know how to remedy this.

The one thing that is locking up fire fox is the plug ins. You have to check to see if a plug in is locking up firefox first of all.
To see the processes press : CTRL+ALT+DEL. then click the tab marked "Processes" Then look for Fire Fox and click on it. Click the Yes button when the warning box show up.
Then do the say for "Plug-in Container" I believe that is called.
this is because all ads are now flash ads or video ads. They lock my computer up all the time.
When the CTRL+ALT+DEL are pressed. Keep this minimized and you can see if your computer is running at 100% memory near the clock. If the box is totally green, you are running a lot of programs on your system. Check the processes and find out what is not needed. Also watch your virtual memory. Rule of thumb is 1.5x total memory.
Then now it would be able to shut down the computer the right way.
Hope this helps you out.

Java.exe keeps its memory in Task Manager

Dear All,
I am running EAServer 6.3.1 which uses JAVA.EXE to run its setup.
1) My machine is windows 2008 EE 32 bit.
2) I have 4 GB Ram on this machine.
3) Java.exe memory settings are set to 2048 GB
When i run EAServer 6.3.1 my java.exe memory increases to 98% and my application get crashed.
i set my Java.exe to 3 GB by puting LARGEADDRESSAWARE switch and increased its memory to 3 GB. Now after increasing the memory of Java.exe to 3 Gb the problem remains same and my application get crashed on same 98%.
What i noticed is JAVA.EXE is taking my system Virtual Memory and not the physical memory in starti and keep using VM. When i connected users with my application. different Java instances develop in Task Manager and when i DISCONNECT them the JAVA.EXE memory do not decreases it remains constant to 98% (please also note that total users connected are 225).
Can you please help me in this regards.
Special Thanks
Regards
Adeel Imtiaz

Java is running in your virtual memory probably because you have something loaded in your physical memory that is blocking it's allocation of resources. DB's are usually memory pigs and may be reserving the space you want to use for Java.
You have Java set to take 2 TB of your RAM, which you do not have or is that a typo.
If you are trying to say you have a memory leak, then you'll have to check your program and see what's going on and EAServer bug pages to see if you are encountering a known problem.
In any case--what you have posted, does not make any sense and anyone wishing to help you will be guessing until you can narrow your question down to something other than what essentially is this:
"What have I got in my pocket?"

Satellite C670D-10W - Task manager shows 100% CPU usage

My brand new laptop with factory installed windows 7 and all programs by Toshiba nothing addded shows 100% processor usage in task Manager and works pretty slow. The sum of 80 odd processes shown in task manager never reaches more than 30-50 % but bottom line is always 100%.
Tried process hacker 2, shows same processes as task manager.
What can be the problem?

If you check this forum you will see that you can find many threads with the same or similar content. Many people have noticed the same after notebook purchase, especially phenomena that notebook is pretty slow. Just without panic. What you must do is to optimize preinstalled operating system.
What can be the problem?
Brand new notebook is preinstalled with original Toshiba recovery image. This recovery image contains operating system, all necessary drivers, different Toshiba specific tools and utilities and some additional software like preinstalled McAffe or Norton antivir.
Many of these tools, utilities and additional software will start with operating system and run in the background. To be honest some of them can be deactivated, some of them can be also removed from the system. By default Windows update is set to automatic so when you go online all available windows updates will be installed automatically in the background and this will happen without your knowledge. This updates installation will make your HDD pretty busy and notebook operations will be slowed down.
I recommend you to change this option and set it to Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install.....
I hope you understand what I want to say and if you have more questions you are welcome.

Adobe reader 7 hangs, task manager shows it is running twice

I am using Adobe Reader 7
I have a problem, when I click on a ,pdf file it opens but it is locked, if I try to zoom or do anything else it freezes up, I check in task manager and it shows that AR is running twice, if I oen a pdf and leave it, and dont zoom or do anything else after about a 2 minutes it will work fine,
anybody know a fix for this?
I have unistalled and reinstalled tried different versions etc, but nothing works.
TIA

Yes it runs twice, if I let it go for about 2 minutes and do not touch it or try to do anything with it, it will start to work and it will only show up once in the task manager, however if I open it and try to scroll, zoom, or even close it, it will freeze completely.

Gnome-globalmenu only shows app name - no menus

Hi,
I installed gnome-globalmenu from the AUR, but it only shows the app name ("Thunar", "Mousepad", etc), but no menus. I have tried this with xfce4-panel and gnome-panel.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

Java Apps failing to launch

Hi,
I hope I'm posting this in the right place, I'm not quite sure. I'm running Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition. I was (attempting) to install WebLogic 8.1 Platform, but the installer kept failing. What would happen is the 'preperation' window would come up but the installer would never launch, even though javaw.exe showed up in the task manager. (I finally installed using console installation.)
Once that was installed, I tried launching the workshop - yet again the same thing happened. java.exe or javaw.exe shows up in the task manager but the workshop never launches.
It seems like any java app simply won't launch. How can I troubleshoot/fix this problem? On my hard drive I have:
j2sdkee1.3.1
jdk1.3.1_09
Note, I really know little about java at all. Let me know if this should be in a different forum.
Thanks
Tom

I have similar problem.
Had Weblogic 8.1 installed without problem, then installed JDK 1.4.2.05 successfully.
Now everything stop working and even a simple applet on IE would crash the browser. Any applet would die and I'd see java.exe on the Task Manager sitting there doing nothing.
I uninstalled the JDK but still Weblogic got messed up, can't even uninstall it.
Any insight would be appreicated. I'd really hate to reimage the OS, only if that's the last resort.

Firefox won't start, but is running in Task Manager

I was running 3.x for a long time with no troubles.
Last week it crashed, and since then I have been unable to start Firefox although it is showing as running in the Task Manager when I attempt to start it.
So it opens no window, but appears to be running.
Same for Safe Mode.
Same for Profile Manager.
Can't use switch to from task manager.
I uninstalled 3.x and deleted all mention of Firefox or Mozilla from the registry.
I installed 4, and still have the exact same problems.
Running XP with a load of business apps, but nothing installed recently.

There may be a corrupted file on Firefox. 
Please attempt to perform a clean reinstall. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/forum-response-clean-reinstall (More Details)] This is different than a regular uninstall.
If a clean reinstall does not fix the issue, please try starting your operating system in safe mode. 
To do so, please do the following:
#Ensure that your computer is shut down completely
#Press the power button
#Tap the <code>F8</code> key repeatedly before the Windows logo and startup screen is displayed
#Select Safe Mode With Networking for the advanced startup options list
Please report back with the results of both solutions.

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
Runtime.addShutdownHook(Thread hook)

NSService for Java App

Hello,
I have one Java app name "hill-resort", which registers for a service(NSService) on start. I have written JNI code to receive service request in my running java app. and in my app Info.plist, I have created Service entries. I am passing the file/folder name from mac context menu to my java app using JNI, till now it was working fine, but suddenly it has started giving error like:
2014-07-19 18:52:56.807 hill-resort[2050:507] Failed to obtain a valid sandbox extension for item: [789514] of flavor: [public.file-url] from the pasteboard.
2014-07-19 18:52:56.808 hill-resort[2050:507] Failed to get a sandbox extensions for itemIdentifier (789514). The data for the sandbox extension was NULL
And it is taking 3 to 10 seconds to get a call in java from the service, earlier it was instantaneous.
I have google around to find out how to fix it, but haven't find a workable solution for Java app.
Please help, how to fix it!

Is the exception you made STATEFUL? If it's not stateful the return
