Title: Task Manager stop services
Post by: earmic on December 29, 2017, 09:06:25 AM

I have a lot of processes running and it is slowing my computer down.  when i try and stop a program, it always says "action cannot be done, access is denied" or some such jibberish.  how can I stop some of these?  Windows 7 home premium.

if the PC says No, it means you aren't allowed to kill that process.
a lot of SYSTEM process will be like that.

providing a screenshot will help.

How do you know that is the reason? Slowing it down how?
