How to Manage Running Processes
Start the TuneUp Process Manager module by going to the Fix problems category in the Start Center and
selecting the Display and close running processes entry under Check system and fix problems.
Alternatively, you can start the module by going to Overview of all functions in the Start Center and select-
ing the Display and close running processes entry under Windows.
TuneUp Process Manager provides a great deal of information on the current status of your system. This
information is divided into three tabs:
Processes
After launching the module, the 'Processes' tab shows all of the currently running programs and processes.
The table shows you the names of the processes together with their priority and CPU usage. The module
also shows you how much memory space the individual processes are taking up.
If you select a process from the list you can view more information on each application with Show details.
Select End process to close an application. This is a somewhat drastic measure, but is sometimes necessary
to close a program that has crashed, or if you want to stop an unwanted dialer.
When User Account Control is enabled, it is possible that only the processes started by you are displayed. To
see the processes started by other users and by the system, click Show all processes at the bottom of the
window.
If you have selected a process in the list, you can click Edit and then Set Process Priority to specify how
much processing power Windows should assign to this process.
