Turbo Services Manager1.5

All you see and work with in a Windows operating system is created to prevent accidents, so you don’t lose your data all of a sudden. However, you’re free to stick your nose into Windows processes and services, with the Task Manager being your guide. For some advanced features, third-party applications like Turbo Services Manager are a suitable choice.

Can be used on the go

One of the main advantages is that you don’t even have to struggle with an installation process, because of the clever development. After downloading, you’re free to take it out for a spin. However, just make sure to run the one for your system architecture, but this is pretty easy to figure out, given the intuitive name.All features are presented in a highly intuitive interface that uses most of its space to enlist all services. As the name suggests, this application doesn’t replace your default Task Manager, but rather provides a better insight on Services, and not Processes. A simple test can be performed by comparing the list of services you can manage with those put at your disposal by Task Manager.

Multiple view and edit options

The upper toolbar is fitted with a large set of buttons that represent your management options. The list of processes is pretty abundant, even for a fresh install of Windows, so you can take advantage of several sorting options.First of all, you can choose to view Wind32 and Kernel services, or even launch the search tool to look up a specific item. Columns can also be set, with columns like name, type, state, startup, dependencies, executables, error control. You can even use columns to sort according to them. Moreover, services can be grouped together by state, startup, and error control.Needless to say that the application is not just meant to show processes, with some built-in management options, such as startup control, start, pause, resume, or even uninstall. If you plan on testing things, there’s the possibility to test load, as well as to save current configuration and load it again in case something unexpected occurs.

A few last words

Taking everything into consideration, we come to the conclusion that Turbo Services Manager is a powerful choice when it comes to managing what’s behind almost everything that’s running on Windows. It provides more options than Task Manager, both in terms of view and edit, making it overall worth a try.
