Win8 How does the system open Task Manager?

You typically open Task Manager to shut down the process when you encounter the Deng of the program card, and the Performance tab in Task Manager provides advanced details about how your computer uses system resources such as random access memory (RAM) and the central Processing unit (CPU). The following system of the small series for you to introduce the WIN8 System Task Manager how to open.

1. Open Task Manager by right-clicking the taskbar, and then clicking Task Manager.

2. Or use the combination hotkey Ctrl + ALT + DEL key, then in the pop-up interface, select Task Manager;

3. Click the Application tab to see which applications are running on your current system, and if you have programs that cannot be closed or unresponsive through this program interface, you can deactivate them on the Application tab.

4. Click the Processes tab to see the real name of the application that is running on your current system. If you encounter a high usage of the cup or the system is running slowly, you can find a larger memory footprint in this tab, if you can confirm that this program you do not currently need, you can manually deactivate it.

5. Click the Processes tab to see the CPU and memory usage, let's take a look at the performance manager parameters and functions;

Function One: Monitor the amount of CPU and memory resources used

The Performance tab includes four charts.

1. The Red box area shows the number of CPUs used at the moment and in the past few minutes. (The computer has multiple CPUs, or a dual-core CPU, or both, if the CPU Usage records chart is displayed separately.) A higher percentage means that a program or process requires a large amount of CPU resources, which slows down the computer's operation. If the percentage freezes near 100%, the program may not respond.

2. The two charts in the Blue box area show the current time and the amount of RAM or physical memory used in the last few minutes (in megabytes (MB)). The percentage of memory that is being used is listed at the bottom of the Task Manager window. If memory usage seems to remain high or significantly degrade your computer's performance, try reducing the number of programs that are open at the same time, or install more RAM.

3. To view the memory usage of a separate process on your computer, click the Processes tab. By default, the memory (private working Set) column is selected. A private working set is a subset of the working set, which is a technical term that describes the amount of memory used by each process. A private working set specifically describes the amount of memory that a process is using that cannot be shared with other processes.

4. If you are a user with higher requirements, you may want to view other advanced memory values on the Processes tab. To do this, click View, turn to select columns, and then select a memory value:

-Memory-Working set. The amount of memory in a private working set is the sum of the amount of memory that the process is using and can be shared by other processes.

-Memory-peak working set. The maximum number of working set memory used by the process.

-Memory-Working set increment. The amount of change in the working set memory used by the process.

-Memory-approved dosage. The amount of virtual memory that the process retains for the user.

-Memory-paged pool. The number of approved virtual memory for a process that can be written to another storage medium, such as a hard disk.

-Memory-non-paged pool. The number of approved virtual memory for a process that cannot be written to another storage medium.

Function Two: Get more information about the amount of memory in use

The three advanced tables in the Green Box area list various details about memory and resource usage.

1. "Total" under "Physical Memory (MB)" indicates the amount of RAM installed on the computer (in megabytes (MB)). "Cache" refers to the amount of physical memory that was most recently used for system resources. Available quantity indicates the amount of memory that is not currently in use or that does not contain useful information (unlike a cached file that contains useful information).

2. "Total" under "Core memory (MB)" indicates the amount of memory being used by the core portion of Windows (called the kernel). "Page count" refers to the amount of virtual memory the kernel is using. Nonpaged indicates the amount of RAM memory used by the kernel.

The system table contains the following five fields:

-the number of handles. The number of unique object identifiers that the process is using. IT pros and programmers are usually concerned about this value.

-Number of threads. The number of objects or processes running within a larger process or program. IT pros and programmers are usually concerned about this value.

-Number of processes. The number of individual processes running on the computer (you can also view this information on the Processes tab).

-Boot time. The amount of time elapsed after a restart operation was performed on the computer.

-Paging file. A description of the usage of virtual memory (also known as a paging file). The paging file is the space on your hard disk that Windows uses to replace RAM (in the case of insufficient RAM). The first number is the amount of RAM and virtual memory currently in use, and the second number is the amount of RAM and virtual memory available on the computer.

3. To view advanced information about the memory and CPU resources you are using, click the Resource Monitor button. Resource Monitor Displays the same graphical summary as in Task Manager, but in more detail. Resource Monitor also contains detailed information about the resource, such as disk usage and network use.
