Wow, my life was a lie! I always sort by name and then scroll but will adopt this now.

- tgv 3y agoSorting, then filtering by name was my goto.
- naikrovek 3y agohow do you filter in Task Manager?
- xnyan 3y agoIt's a feature of the latest version of task manager. I don't know of any way to do it with the win10 task manager, but you can always "Get-Process | Out-GridView" which will present a GUI process info table with sorting and a filter.
- zwieback 3y agoAlso, tasklist and taskkill work for the most common use of killing zombie processes and you don't have to learn powershell
- xnyan 3y ago>you don't have to learn powershell Always surprised to hear this on HN. Powershell is such a better experience than any other option on windows. I think it's objecty nature scares people off, but it's really not much of a time commitment to proficiency and a fairly pleasant experience to use.
- naikrovek 3y agoagree. powershell is awesome and underrated.
- zwieback 3y agoYes, it's pretty great but for some reason I never find the time to learn it properly. I've used it to call directly into .Net assemblies, that was pretty fun and rewarding.
- pests 3y agoEverybody always talks of a dream of a better shell. Where programs output structured data to each other and composition is free. That dream is powershell.
- sinuhe69 3y agoYeah, I didn’t understand at first what they were talking about. I also always sort by process name or even better PID, so they will “stay”.
