Somebody needs to find whoever was responsible for the original NT task manager and learn a thing or two. That thing was bulletproof. I had servers over the years that were so broken nothing else would run but you hit CTRL-ALT-DEL and tada!

David Plummer, he has a YouTube channel "Dave's garage" he has a couple of videos dedicated to Taskmanager and even a look at the source for his first version. That and other cool stuff on windows and other tech.

I love his channel. Very informative and entertaining.

One of his videos about task manager is one of those YouTube videos that just won't go away from being suggested for me.

Yeah, me to, so I decided to finally watch it and decided his channel is pretty interesting. Sure he's pretty 'microsofty' (i.e. not seeing any faults in the company) but other than that he presents his topics well.

TIL... Thanks for the tip. I'm going to search some of that stuff out.
