MONITOR OPENED APPLICATIONS
Upon launch, Task Manager shows a list of all opened applications which are under monitor:
To monitor cached processes, see Monitor Cached Processes.
CLOSE APPLICATIONS
Close an application when it isn’t used, or when it is misbehaving. Check for any
misbehaving applications by looking up its usage of memory and CPU.
In the O.S., how to close an application varies. Some applications have inherent facilities to
close themselves such as a GUI button or a menu command while others don’t. When it is
the latter case, Task Manager closes them for you.
To close an application by Task Manager:
1) Launch Task Manager as described in Launch Task Manager.
Task Manager opens monitoring opened applications.
2) Tap & hold the application to close. From the context menu that comes up, tap End
Task.
OR
Tap the application to close. The application is then highlighted onscreen. Tap the “End
Task” command on Softkey bar
