View 2 Repliesfirst, what is the base minimum that windows needs open to run... ex. svchost.exe, explorer, etc.
Second. is there an easier way to close all programs except the ones i want to stay open, i want to keep the needed basics open and my program, which will open other programs, but i want to make sure nothing else is running so that things will go as smoothly and as fast as possible. I just don't want to manually check what processes need killed and place them in the program one by one, i want to kill all but a few.
Extra credit... stopping all unneeded windows services would be nice too, but that would probably be too long of a process to worry about, and not really worth it considering the benefit of speed it would give.
