3. DEF:
• A utility program that reports the status of running programs. Task
managers are used to review which applications and background
processes are running, as well as to stop an app that is not
responding.
• One of the most common things done in Task Manager is using End
Task to stop a program from running. If a program is no longer
responding, you can choose to End Task from the Task Manager to
close the program without having to restart the computer.

4. • The Task Manager is an operating system component found in all
versions of Microsoft Windows since Windows NT 4.0 and Windows
2000. It allows us to view each of the tasks (processes) and the
overall performance of the computer. Using the Task Manager, we
can view how much memory a program is using, stop a frozen
program, and view available system resources.

5. TASK
• Any piece of work that is undertaken or attempted. A specific piece
of work required to be done as a duty or for a specific fee
(computing). A process or instance of execution of a program.
MANAGEMENT:
• According to George R. Terry, "Management is a distinct process
consisting of planning, organizing, actuating and controlling,
performed to determine and accomplish stated objectives by the use
of human beings and other resources".
• Management is a managerial process involves planning, organizing,
directing and unifying human efforts for the accomplishment of given
tasks.

6. • The Task Manager is opened by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Esc on the
keyboard. You can also open the Task Manager by right-
clicking the taskbar and selecting Task Manager.

7. • Windows offers many ways to launch the Task Manager. Press
Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open the Task Manager with a keyboard shortcut or
right-click the Windows taskbar and select “Task Manager.”
• You can also press Ctrl+Alt+Delete and then click “Task Manager” on
the screen that appears or find the Task Manager shortcut in your
Start menu.

8. • The first time we launch the Task Manager, we see a small, simple
window. This window lists the visible applications running on our
desktop, excluding background applications. We can select an
application here and click “End Task” to close it. This is useful if an
application isn’t responding—in other words, if it’s frozen—and we
can’t close it the usual way.

9. • Switch To: Switch to the application’s window, bringing it to the front of your
desktop and putting it in focus. This is useful if you’re not sure which window
is associated with which application.
• End Task: End the process. This works the same as the “End Task” button.
• Run New Task: Open the Create New Task window, where you can specify
a program, folder, document, or website address and Windows will open it.
• Always On Top: Make the Task Manager window itself “always on top” of
other windows on your desktop, letting you see it at all times.
• Open File Location: Open a File Explorer window showing the location of
the program’s .exe file.
• Search Online: Perform a Bing search for the program’s application name
and file name. This will help you see exactly what the program is and what it
does.
• Properties: Open the Properties window for the program’s .exe file. Here
you can tweak compatibility options and see the program’s version number,
for example.
•

10. • File > Run New Task: Launch a program, folder, document, or
network resource by providing its address. You can also check
“Create this task with administrative privileges” to launch the
program as Administrator.
• Options > Always on Top: The Task Manager window will
always be on top of other windows while this option is
enabled.
• Options > Minimize on Use: The Task Manager will be
minimized whenever you right-click a process and select
“Switch To.” Despite the odd name, that’s all this option does.
• Options > Hide When Minimized: The Task Manager will stay
running in the notification area (system tray) when you click
the minimize button if you enable this option..

11. • View > Refresh Now: Immediately refresh the data displayed in the
Task Manager.
• View > Update Speed: Choose how frequently the data displayed in
the Task Manager is updated: High, Medium, Low, or Paused. With
Paused selected, the data isn’t updated until you select a higher
frequency or click “Refresh Now.”
• View > Group By Type: With this option enabled, processes on the
Processes tab are grouped into three categories: Apps, Background
Processes, and Windows Processes. With this option disabled,
they’re shown mixed in the list.
• View > Expand All: Expand all the process groups in the list. For
example, Google Chrome uses multiple processes, and they’re
shown combined into a “Google Chrome” group. You can expand
individual process groups by clicking the arrow to the left of their
name, too.
• View > Collapse All: Collapse all the process groups in the list. For
example, all Google Chrome processes will just be shown under the
Google Chrome category.

12. • An application which is included with windows as operating system.
• Provides detailed information about computer performance and
running applications, processes and CPU usage, commit charge and
memory information, network activity and statistics, logged-in users,
and system services

13. • The Applications tab is included in all versions of Windows, except
Windows 8 and Windows 10, and shows all open programs running
on the computer. For most users of Windows 7 and earlier, the
Applications tab is the most visited tab. It displays the programs
running, including those that stop responding and require you to End
Task it. Windows 8 and 10 users can find the End Task on the
Processes tab.

14. • The Processes tab shows a list of all running processes on the
system. This list includes services and processes from other
accounts.
• The Process tab is in all versions of Windows, including Windows 8
and Windows 10, and shows all Windows processes currently
running on the computer. Starting with Windows 8, Microsoft
combined the Applications and Processes tab, hence the reason the
Applications tab does not appear in Windows 8 or 10.

15. • The Services tab shows all the Windows Services currently running
on the computer.

16. • The performance tab shows overall statistics about the systems
performance, most notably the overall amount of CPU usage and
how much memory is being used.
• The Performance tab displays the computer's available system
resources, including how much CPU, memory, disk drive, Wi-Fi,
and network is used. Newer versions of Windows also show the
chart of usage for each of these as they're used. At the bottom of this
tab is also a quick link to the Resource Monitor.

17. • The Networking tab shows statistics relating to each of the network
adapters present in the computer. By default the adapter name,
percentage of network utilization, link speed and state of the network
adapter are shown, along with a histogram of recent activity.
• The Networking tab in all versions of Windows, except Windows 8
and Windows 10, shows network traffic happening on the computer,
including any LAN or Wireless networking traffic.

18. • The Users tab shows all users that currently have a session on the
computer.
• The Users tab shows all the users logged in to the computer. In
Windows 8, the Users tab also shows the processes that each user
is running.

19. • Task management tools produce concrete data that can be reviewed
and digested so end users can easily grasp what they are doing,
what they have done and how things can be done better.
• A task management tool is used by an individual, team, or
organization to help complete projects more efficiently by organizing
and prioritizing related tasks.
• Task management tools come in many forms, like basic
spreadsheets or online project management applications. At every
level, task management tools help people:
To Work efficiently and reduce waste
To Stay organized
To Ensure teams and individuals are being utilized in the correct
ways
To Meet deadlines.

20. • Manage and organize workloads: Know what you have to do,
and which items have priority. Assign and execute.
• Increase efficiency and production: Applying an optimal
amount of resources and time to a task equals smaller turnarounds in
the production cycle.
• Improve the quality of work: Quality is never sacrificed for
speed of production when tasks are organized, and information is
correctly utilized.
• Drive collaboration: Teams work better when there is a shared
understanding of what needs to be done and ideas are easily
communicated through a visual task management system.
• Reduce waste: Eliminate time spent thinking of what to do next or
reworking tasks that were not completed correctly on the first attempt.
• Meet deadlines: With an organized task management system you
and your team work more efficiently making missed deadlines a thing of
the past.
