TaskManager showing more things than it should?

[John Jay Smith]

Hello,

there is a checkmark box on the task manager that says to show
processes from other users or not.
When this is unchecked shouldnt only the processes with the username [my
account] (in my case it is Kenny) show and not SYSTEM or LOCAL SERVICE?

See screenshot:

If so why do they show and how can I make taskmanager work correctly?

THANKS

No. SYSTEM and LOCAL SERVICEs will always be displayed. The checkbox
toggles whether or not processes will be displayed for users logged in
under alternate credentials. For example, if another user account
called "Mary" is also logged on and running applications, these
processes will not be shown under your "Kenny" account. The checkbox
is only useful if you have Fast User-Switching enabled. Remember that
you can sort the list by User Name to separate the entries, or you can
disable this column entirely by going to View > Select Columns and
unchecking "User Names" from the box on the lower left. It won't
change which processes are displayed, but it will make it so you don't
know the difference.
