Jay Yeager says, talking about T-Mog, says, how can I integrate T-Mog into Windows by default, replacing the OG Task Manager?
Dave PlummerHOST

Ah, that's a tricky way to word it, but the answer is in Settings, there is an option that says Replace Windows Task Manager, and you can turn that on.

Now, that option is only available if you install for all users when you did the installation.
Dave PlummerHOST

So when you do the installation, you get the choice.

Today I've been, well, actually this week I've been heads down on Task Manager, the new version of my Task Manager, for the last week or so.
Dave PlummerHOST

goal it was i didn't have a specific threshold i wanted to use as little cpu and ram as possible and i keep revisiting that i'm working on it right now in the background actually i'm trying to reduce the amount of cpu usage um so the goal was to keep it small but there was no specific threshold i did notice when last i checked it was smaller than the windows task manager running on the same machine running side by side and using a little less cpu that may not hold out once i add all the features i want to add but It's kind of the ballpark for it.

Dave PlummerHOST
