View all running processes in a simple list that can be used to kill, suspend, or resume them, create a quick list for batch management with this straightforward task manager alternative #Process Manager #Kill Process #Teminate Process #Process Manager #Suspend #Resume
Applications that run on your computer are not only represented by a visual interface. Functionality is handled by a specific service or process, which can be handled by the Windows task manager. In case you're not quite in good terms with it, there are a lot of alternatives like Rapid Process Manager that provide faster solutions to suspend or kill inefficient processes.
It takes only a little while to get it installed on your computer, and in case you consider it appealing, you might want to know there is also Portable Rapid Process Manager, which can be used directly from a USB flash drive. However, it relies on .NET Framework for proper functionality, so you need to make sure it’s installed on the target PC.
The application doesn’t manage to make quite a good impression at first, at least as far as the visuals are concerned. A simple window frame is used to house all features, with an additional tray icon that can launch it in case you don’t need to keep it on the desktop all the time.
As soon as it runs, active processes on your computer are shown in an incredibly poor manner, with simple names and process IDs. This means you have to know exactly where the process comes from just by looking at its name, because even if you trigger the context menu, the only options are to suspend or kill, and no possibility to get more details.
Rapid Process Manager also comes with a method to handle multiple processes at a time. This is done by adding target items to one of three specific quick lists, which are triggered from the tray icon to kill, suspend, or resume processes. Sadly, there's no built-in option to view any of the lists, which means you have to remember what items were sent there.
The Windows task manager has greatly evolved throughout the years, and is now capable of a lot more than just showing and putting an end to processes you don't deem fit for running. Unfortunately, Rapid Process Manager still has a lot more to learn from this basic Windows component, leaving a lot to be desired in general.
