Emergency Task Manager hangs the computer

Have an event suddenly the computer hangs, there is no respond and we can only move the mouse with no other applications can run? In fact, sometimes the last moment "Task Manager" (Ctrl + Alt + Del) nor the condition of the wall like this. So that may ultimately we just pressing the button Reset.


Although the reset button can be overcome, but sometimes can be at risk of losing data, fie have broken, and so forth. Alternatively, we can try to use free software Antifreeze.

Antifreeze may provide an alternative to overcome the latest incident as above. Such events may be caused by excessive use of CPU (almost 100%) or the use of memory that is too large, so that we can not completely open, move or close any application.

After the software is installed on, so to activate, we live to use a keyboard key combination Ctrl + Alt + Win + Home. After that Antifreeze appear full screen (full screen one) and almost all other applications will be in the pause (sleep) to reduce the use of CPU / Memory.


When Antifreeze appear, we live off the process (End Process) application that uses the CPU is very large (visible indication on the CPU Time column) or can also use excessive memory (Usage). Because it looks like a Task Manager menu, we should not be difficult to use this software.

Conditions where Antifreeze can be used, namely:
  • There are one or more applications that are running very intensive, using almost all the CPU, so the system is not responsive.
  • Is one or more applications that use very large memory (over-) including swapping files, so that the burden the system.
  • There are applications that run with a very high priority, so that all processes use the CPU (processor)
  • Many programs that run together and each want to get the "attention / quota" from the Processor.

So although, sometimes Antifreeze not successful, or not to run certain conditions. Computer hangs, for example because of hardware problems, such as Memory (RAM) that is damaged, bad sectors on Hardisk and the like (and usually marked with the Mouse cursor active not / can not be moved). In addition Antifreeze also may not be successful if the application has a priority higher than Antifreeze.
