Information is updated every short-time interval. You can change this interval and hide columns with information that is unnecessary for you using General Settings dialog. Press æCtrlÆ+Æ+Æ (on numpad) to set size of columns minimal enough to completely show all information.

Use commands in File menu or local menu to perform operations with selected process: change its priority, terminate etc. Press æAltÆ+ÆEnterÆ on selected process to see file properties for its main executable file.

image/candle.gif Tip: you can run new process by pressing æInsÆ key on keyboard and terminate execution of selected process by pressing æDelÆ key. Warning! All unsaved data in terminated process (and possibly in others too) will be lost! Use F3 Key to close selected process

image/candle.gif Tip: you can sort list of processes this pane by any columnÆs contents by clicking on columnÆs header (sorting must be enables in the Information Panes Settings dialog). If you want to invert sort order, just click at the same columnÆs header another time. Important: it works only if you register the program!
