Is there a simpler way to activate Task manager, than search, or control
alt delete? An icon on the desktop would be nice? - Thanks IM
Create a shortcut to it on the Quick Launch bar or on the desktop. From
start, type task manager. Right click on it's entry at the top of the start
menu and click on Add to Quick Launch, or just drag it to the desktop to
create a shortcut on the desktop.
To have it open elevated so you can see all processes from all users, and
kill processes, right click the shortcut, be it on the desktop or on the
Quick Launch bar, choose Properties | Shortcut Tab - Advanced button. Put a
check mark in Run as administrator.
Now when you open TM from that shortcut it will ask to be elevated (if you
have UAC on).
