I hope they never get around to changing the Event Viewer or Disk Management. I know they are far from perfect, but can you imagine it getting the same treatment as the Task Manager?
- badsectoracula 6y agoAm i missing something? The Task Manager has barely changed since Windows NT 4 and if anything it got both more features, output panels and became more usable over time. Also it doesn't use the modern UI stuff, it still seems to be in Win32. (btw, just in case... you did click "More details" at the bottom left side, right? Otherwise it looks more barebones than the Windows 3.1 task manager :-P)
- will4274 6y agoAre you joking? Event Viewer's "filter event sources" UI is unusable - the scroll causes the check boxes to vanish. It's been unusable for 20 years. Virtually every ops person needs to be told to use the keyboard and just accept that a few erroneous sources will be selected or use the spacebar to deselect them. Even more frustrating, just typing the name of the event source seems to work INTERMITTENTLY! In the same time, Task Manager has gained nice charts, it's begun to display stats on network and disk as well as CPU usage, and it's gained a simplified view that my mother can use to close a crashing program. I've been spectacularly impressed with the task manager changes - simultaneously making it easy for low skill users and adding advances features making it unnecessary for me to install Process Explorer on every machine I use.
