Create a Shortcut or Hotkey to Open Task Manager with All Users View in Windows 7 or Vista

If you need to always open up Task Manager with the "All Users" view and you feel it is really troublesome to follow some steps, today I will show you a trick--create a shorcut or hotkey to open Task Manager with the "All Users" view in Windows 7 or Vista.

On the Processes tab in Task Manager, there's a button called "Show processes from all users" which will re-open Task Manager for the purpose of showing all the processes, which can be annoying if you need to do it a lot.

Create the Task Manager Shortcut

Simply right-click on the desktop or elsewhere, and then choose New Shortcut from the menu.

Then add the following command to the shortcut location box:

taskmgr.exe

After you've added the command, go to the next screen and give the shortcut a meaningful name...in this example, I chose "Task Manager (All Users)" as the name because it seemed descriptive enough.

Now right-click on the shortcut and open up Properties, where you can add a shortcut key if you'd like

Note: The shortcut needs to be on the desktop or in the Start Menu for this to work.

The most important step: Click the Advanced button and check the "Run as administrator" checkbox.

It's done! Now you'll have a shortcut that will at once open up Task Manager to the all users view (after a UAC prompt).
