Task Manager X101.0

Most running programs on your computer can be tracked by the corresponding background process you can view in the Task Manager. It’s also the place which lets you cease custom processes, but if it seems like a complicated tasks, there are various third-party alternatives like Task Manager X10 which greatly simplify the whole operation.

Cluttered space makes navigation difficult

The installation process is short and uneventful, letting you check out the set of features before you realize. Note that it’s best to run the application with administrator privileges so it’s able to properly read running processes and have the necessary privileges so it can terminate selected items on the list.It can take a little time to scan the system for running processes, and this operation is done on every launch. The list of processes shows up in a rather rough environment. Unfortunately, the main window can’t be resized, and the default size configuration might make it difficult to scroll through the list, especially if it’s crowded.

Doesn’t show any process details

In case you can’t find a specific process there’s the possibility to refresh in an attempt to identify again. Search is not implemented, so looking up processes of interest needs to be manually done. The application can only terminate one process at a time, with a prompt to show operation status.Sadly, there are no related details offered. The list is poor in content, only showing processes by name. There are no filter options, and all processes are bundled together, regardless of type or owner. Refreshing is done manually because there’s no option to set a time interval. You need to use other means to start processes, with the application only offering a terminate option.

To sum it up

In conclusion, Task Manager X10 is heavily underprepared to math at least the default Task Manager windows puts at your disposal. Detection is only manually refreshed, and you need to pay extra attention to the processes you want to kill because there are no related details shown.
