    Another thing you can do with Task Manager is to view a list of processes running on your system. You can sort the list by name, by CPU or RAM usage, and more. When you look at your list of the running processes, it may look like you have a lot of processes running in the background, even if you don\u2019t have a lot of programs running. This is normal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    You may notice that the list of processes \u201cjumps\u201d around as you\u2019re looking at it. You can change the speed at which that list refreshes, by clicking View, then \u201cUpdate speed\u201d. You can slow down or even pause the update speed.<\/span><\/p>\n
