Overview of Windows 8 Task Manager (2)

Windows 8 Task Manager (2): grouping processes by type, humanized display processes, highlighting, and new version of the Service tag task manager is not just this simple. Behind the seemingly concise interface, there are countless secrets hidden. Click "Moredetails" and www.2cto.com to see a brand new interface. Compared with the refreshing simplified interface, the added content is no less than the traditional task manager, and the interface is more user-friendly. We can see that the content of "FewerDetail" is comprehensively expanded on the "MoreDetail" interface. Name, which is grouped by three groups: Apps, Background Processes, and WindowsProcesses, in this way, grouping will make it easier for us to view the processes we do not know, this avoids system crashes caused by the completion of system processes without understanding the role of processes. Because these processes are not very familiar with, you can also identify which processes are system processes (there are risks after the end) and those are application processes. In the Apps section, you can see some running Metro programs, but their CPU usage is zero, that is, the so-called "Tombstone program ". They do not occupy CPU resources here, but can continue to close the last time they are opened next time. If you do not like this, you can close the program in the task manager. After an audio clip is inserted, you can also right-click the blank area next to FewerDetail if you do not like this grouping method, deselect the "Group by type" check box. Whether or not the "Groupby type" option is canceled, the processes provided in the new Task Manager are categorized by application. Compared with the previous version of the manager, it looks more intuitive. Although the Job Manager of www.2cto.com in earlier versions also provides programs for calling processes, it is still very confusing to find them. If you like the traditional interface, you can view it under the Detail label. It is similar or more perfect, except for the process of the program, the system processes and local services are also listed, and the Status column is added for our convenience. As mentioned above, in the new task manager, the processes called by a program are always in the same group regardless of whether they are grouped by type. We can end only one process under the program, rather than the whole program. The process name is also expressed in a way that we can understand. Taking Microsoft Word as an example, we can see all the Word documents we are editing, you can choose one of them to end it. In the traditional task manager, only winword.exe can be found. The document we are editing and the document we need to complete cannot be viewed. Once the process ends, it is all disabled. Although the new task manager can view the name of each document, it is blank in more detailed information. If you can give detailed information, it will be more perfect. In addition, more details are provided under the new version of the Task Manager Processes label. For example, the CPU usage and memory are not only displayed, but also the disk and network options are added to mark the network bandwidth occupied by each program. Even if a Program uploads user data, you can also view it intuitively. In addition, the background color varies depending on the usage. The deeper the color, the more system resources are consumed. (This is done during Windows evaluation .) At this time, we can see the obvious color difference (including high resource occupation processes and resource types being consumed ).
Of course, in the old version of task manager, you can click one of them to arrange by usage from high to low (or from low to high), but there is no color difference, it does not automatically indicate which item (CPU, memory, hard disk, network, etc.) consumes a large amount of resources. In addition, the usage changes constantly. Of course, in the new version, you can also select an item for sorting, as long as you want (Note: After you select to sort by a certain item, the Group is automatically canceled, and all programs are arranged in a hybrid manner ). Next, let's take a look at the services tag. For the services tag, it seems that there is no big difference (and there is no big difference. -.-). In the traditional task manager, the functions of "Services" and "OpenServices" in the new Task Manager are the same, but the appearance is slightly changed. Both enable the service management interface, which is equivalent to entering "services. msc" during running ". Right-click a service and you will find that there is a slight difference between the two: In the traditional task manager, only "StartServices" (enable service) or "StopServices" (disable Service) the "Goto Process" option varies depending on the service status. For the enabled service, you can select the last two. For the stopped service, you can only choose to enable the Service. In the new version of task manager, there are more options in the right-click menu. We can still see that we have discussed a lot of "SearchOnline" last time, but this search only contains the system name. If some system information can be added, will the search be more accurate? In addition to the "SearchOnline" function discussed in the process tag last time, an additional "OpenServices" will be found ". After opening the service, I was disappointed to find that its function is no big difference from the previously mentioned function of opening the service. It turned out to be a chicken rib. However, if you can locate the selected service in the opened Service Manager, it is more convenient than the current one at least. Similarly, there is still a lot of content that has no experience, but today we can only be here. More content to be explored. Make a simple summary of today's experience: in the new version of the task manager, the "More Detail" feature is More powerful than the traditional task manager. The main feature is to manage applications, background processes, and system process groups. processes are displayed in "plaintext" and grouped by program to highlight resource-consuming processes, at the same time, it is more convenient to add disk and network monitoring in the process. Service tags are not significantly changed. The main advantage is that you can right-click to search for related services. Www.2cto.com has three points that can be optimized: first, there is no detailed CPU, memory, disk, or network data for the specific process provided after the application is expanded, it only gives a total amount in the application, which is inconvenient to view details. Second, for multi-tag applications, such as browsers and QQ2012, only the selected tag information is displayed after the program is expanded. Other tag information is ignored. Displaying other tags and ending a tag (although it is in the same process as other tags) will further improve the user experience. Third, the "Open Services" function right under the service tag looks boring. We recommend that you use this method to directly locate the selected service, which will further improve the user experience. The above is my thoughts on this use. I hope to optimize it in future versions. Author absolute zero degree 0o
