How do you know which one you can shut down(if any) the names don't make much sense too me can anyone give me a little guide as to what all these processes are doing?
tidyclio said:I went into them both and on the startup tab i disabled them all.
When i restarted everything started working straight away definetly much better i did get some message about are you sure you don't want to restore it back to the way it was though?
I still have 31 processes running but most of them seem to be things to do with window that it says i shouldn't terminate.
Can anyone recommend a good way of trying to get some of the junk out my computer without having to install all my programs again?
