General
When you start TaskMan you can see 4 main views: Running applications, Start, System information and Processes. You can switch between them with left/right cursor keys or by selecting the needed view from ''View'' menu.
Running applications view
Running applications view
This view shows the information about running applications. You can see currently running applications, switch to the needed application, get information about any running application, close an application or all applications at once.
All applications displayed in this view are sorted by usage, more recently used applications are on top.
Next to every application you can see its memory usage.
Please note that some applications belong to one and the same executable (e.g. Contacts, Calendar, Tasks belong to poutlook.exe; Desktop, Programs to shell32.exe). Amount of memory usage for such applications is shown as their process memory usage. So if Contacts and Calendar show, say, 47kb each, it means that their executable uses 47 kb, i.e. 47 kb is for both Contacts and Calendar.
You can explore each application (window) and get various information about it: executable name it belongs to, window name, class, styles and position. You can also spy into all child windows/controls it owns.
Application launcher view
Start view
That view allows you to start any installed applications just in some finger taps. It displays list of all applications. You can scroll down to start needed application or just type its name (or part of it) to search for it and start.
In this view you can also get brief information about any application, like shortcut file name, where it targets (where application executable is located), command line used to start application, etc
System information view
System information view
This view shows brief information about your device memory, device disk, memory card and battery.
Numbers on the left of gauges indicate amount of used memory/space.
Numbers in bold font on the right of gauges indicate remaining space or free memory.
You can also use "Memory information" and "Battery information" commands to get detailed information about device memory and battery.
Processes view
Processes view
This view shows all running processes and how much memory each process consumes. You can explore each process and get various information about it, the modules the process uses, and spy into all windows the process owns.
In this view you can also end processes. If you want to end a process TaskMan tries to close it softly for the first and if it doesn't respond to close event TaskMan offers you to terminate the process.
Windows explorer tool
In "Running applications" and "Processes" view you can spy into all its windows using "Windows list" command.
It displays a graphical tree of relationships among application/process windows. All windows and controls listed according to the standard window hierarchy, with sibling windows ordered by Z-order. You can get detailed information about any window like executable name it belongs to, window name, class, styles, position, ownership information and information about its children.
