Re: Task Manager Not Remembering Show processes from all users
Hello,
In XP, I could check the "Show all processes" check box and it would
remember for next time. Why have they made this not work? I've had Vista
for almost a year and I still hate it. SearchIndexer.exe is always running
and making all this noise on my hard disk and spiking my CPU up and down, so
I'm always looking at TaskManger to set it to low priority or kill it.
Forcing me to have to press the Show all processes button every time I start
Task Manager and then go through the UAC is just one more irritation on top
of the SearchIndexer irritation.
