As you know, the so-called task manager inWindows operating systems of any generation is a powerful enough thing that can do a lot. However, the majority of users of modern computer systems use it not for the intended purpose (only to complete the hung programs). But sometimes it happens that the task manager does not show processes. Let's see how to fix this situation.
Сам диспетчер представляет собой уникальное means of controlling the entire system, allowing you to change the settings, so to speak, on the fly, without interfering with changing group policy settings or changing the registry keys and registry entries.
Все знают, что вызывается он обычным three-finger combination Ctrl + Alt + Del. Most users resort to this when a program is “hung”. Naturally, in the main menu you can “kill” such a process. However, not many users think about the fact that in services or processes you can find comprehensive information about what is being done at the moment, how to disable such-and-such and such.
But the trouble is, if earlier with access to it is notthere were problems (in particular, in versions of Windows Vista, XP and below), then, starting with the “seven”, the service may be blocked. So it turns out that the task manager does not show processes. In Windows, when accessing with administrator rights, a special button appeared to enable the display of all services, if for some reason the dispatcher itself is, so to speak, in a minimized state. But let's see why the task manager does not show processes more globally.
The root cause of this condition can bebasic disabling user access to the service by the administrator of the computer or network administrator. This refers to the moment that by intervening an inexperienced user can disrupt the operation of the system. And if we take into account the network versions of Windows, and even downloadable from the central server, and not from the local terminal, then there is no reason to speak about any access rights at all.
On the other hand, there may be situationswhen, even with administrative rights, there is no process mapping. Let's see what to do if the task manager does not show processes using the example of the most popular Windows 8 OS.
If anyone does not know, you can access this service using the taskmgr command in the Run menu. In this case, we will proceed from the fact that there is still access to the dispatcher.
To start this service, when entering the commandYou should use the field below, where you can specify the start as an administrator or the corresponding command. Entered Good. But why the code itself has a somewhat unusual display, not only of the processes, but also of the tabs?
Usually this is associated only with a minimized view of the program. It is enough just to double click on the main window (usually in its upper part), as the dispatcher will turn into a familiar look.
Однако и это еще не все.For example, take the simplest situation where the task manager in Windows 7 does not show processes (local, which equally apply to versions 8 and 10). Here you should use the button below to display the processes of all users. If user account control has been disabled (meaning group policy and system registry), a checkbox will be displayed instead of the button.
The easiest way to enable access isusing change group policy settings (gpedit.msc command). Here you need to go to the user configuration (even if he is not an administrator), then use the sections of administrative templates and system settings.
In the right field, simply select the parameter.disable Task Manager and enter its properties or edit options. Here you need to set the parameter, either “Not set” or “Disable”. After restarting the system, everything will work.
Another thing is when the system is installedalternative software product. For example, the same package optimizer AVZ PC Tune Up offers to replace the standard Task Manager on your own. With a standard call, there may be a conflict of programs, associated only with the fact that they begin to block each other. In this case, it is even possible that a service of the installed utility is started up with a standard keyboard shortcut, and when accessed via the standard Task Manager command does not work as expected (in our case it does not display current processes).
The same goes for applications like Process Manager. Naturally, there will have to disable the replacement in the programs themselves.
To summarize, it can be noted that ifTask Manager does not show processes; the simplest solution is to start the service on behalf of the administrator and then use the process display button of all registered users of the local computer terminal.
If the problem is related to blocking access toservice as such, will have to change security settings at the group policy or registry level (changes are made on the parameters in the same way, but in the registry it is a more labor-intensive process). In extreme cases, the system itself will show a button for maximizing the main service windows, as provided in the top ten. In general, the above measures are suitable for almost all versions of Windows, starting with XP.
