Some programs can heavily load the processor and at the same time take up too much RAM, that is, they slow down the performance of your computer. Few of these processes are vital to the operating system; without them, it simply won't work. However, all other processes can be disabled using the Task Manager. So, in order to disable unnecessary processes, you need to follow these instructions.
Instructions
Step 1
First you need to open the Task Manager window, you can do this in two ways. First, it can be called up by pressing a specific key combination (Ctrl-Alt-Delete). This method is especially good if your operating system is completely frozen and no longer responds to mouse movements. But remember that pressing these keys twice may cause the system to reboot. Second, right-click on the free space on the taskbar (this line is at the bottom of your monitor screen). In the context menu that opens, click on the "Task Manager" item.
Step 2
Sometimes, when you press the Ctrl-Alt-Delete keyboard shortcut, you may see the message "The Task Manager has been disabled by the administrator user." This can be caused by several reasons, for example, due to the action of viruses. Therefore, if you still want to unlock this useful feature on your computer, then you need to do the following. First, open the "Start" menu and in the "Run" line enter the command "gredit.msc", then confirm it by clicking "OK". As a result, a new window "Group Policy" should open in front of you, then you need to go to the item "User Configuration" - "Administrative Templates" and press "System" - "Ctrl-Alt-Delete". Double-click the "Remove Task Manager" option. In the new window that opens, select "Disabled" and confirm the changes by clicking "Apply". After that, you can simply close the window.
Step 3
After launching the Task Manager, go from the Applications tab to the next Processes tab. You will see a list of all processes running in the operating system. Find the unnecessary element in this list, and then select it by clicking the left button. Next, in the context menu of the task manager, click on the "End process" button. Then you need to agree with the disabling of the selected process.
