Resplendence Software

AntiFreeze

AntiFreeze is an emergency task manager that is intended for situations in which your system has become unreponsive and the standard Windows Task Manager cannot help you out.

To access the AntiFreeze task manager, press the hotkey that's registered for it. The default key combination for this is ALT+CTRL+HOME. Then the AntiFreeze emergency task manager will popup which allows you to see what processes have been consuming most of your CPU time and memory.

If your computer has become unreponsive it's likely that you can solve the problem by killing off the program that has been consuming most CPU time.

When will it work ?

If your computer is hanging or becomes unresponsive because

One or more programs are doing very intensive tasks, they consume so much processor cycles that the system becomes unresponsive

One or more programs consume so much memory that the paging file is heavily used, overloading the system

Programs are running with a scheduling priority which is so high that they consume all processor resources

Too many programs are running at the same time and they all have to compete for attention from the processor

then AntiFreeze is likely to help you get your system to respond again.

If your computer is hanging or becomes unresponsive because of a hardware problem or the mouse cursor is not updated when you move it or some piece of kernel software or device driver is stuck at an elevated priority level then AntiFreeze is not likely to offer you a solution. In that case you may need to press the reset button and reboot to get your computer going again.
