Task Manager

Task Manager allows you to view, start, or end any active RTSS process or Windows process linked to RTX64 on your system, whether started by Task Manager or with the RtssRun command line utility. Windows processes linked to RTX64 are un-managed processes that make calls to the Real-time Interface (RTAPI) or managed processes that use the IntervalZero.RTX64 interface to communicate with RTSS processes.

Through Task Manager, you can also schedule tasks to start automatically when the Subsystem is started.

NOTE: The subsystem cannot be stopped while Task Manager is running.

To start Task Manager:

From the Start menu, choose All Programs > IntervalZero RTX64 3.7 Runtime > Task Manager
