    Killing explorer.exe
    « on: November 28, 2013, 09:40:15 AM »
    Is it so dangerous for the system, as it says the Task Manager, to kill this process?
    I always kill it, when I use MS-DOS applications. It has a strange way to control their CPU usage.

      I'm sorry, if I explained it not as I understand it.
      There is no danger for my Proffesional Edition as soon, as I don't kill this process.
      I only ask, if this warning is true. I only think this warning is for begginers of Windows, to not use Task Manager for any reason.
