Many times performance problems can be resolved by understanding what programs are hogging your precious system resources. This tool helps to figure those things out. I ask my friends and family members to install this so that when it comes time to figure out and solve a problem that we can use it to assist in the troubleshooting process.
This is a very good tool to see what is running and taking resources on your computer.
When installing, accept defaults until you get to the screen for "Select additional tasks". On this screen, I suggest unselecting everything. This will enable the program to run only when you want it to run. Since you will run this only when you want to figure out what is going on with your system, it is fine to select it from the start menu.

I have a problem that I know has an easy fix but I can't remember the steps to take. I use Outlook for my email and desktop calendar. I thought I closed it down last night but now that I am trying to open it this morning it won't come up. That means it is running behind the scenes somewhere...but where exactly is it? How do I find it so I can close it down completely and open it back up?
