task manager: before clicking end process - part 2

continuation of the 1st part

1. igfxpers.exe - is a process installed alongside NVidia graphics cards and provides additional configuration options for these devices. "This program is a non-essential process, but should not be terminated unless suspected to be causing problems."
processlibrary.com says its not a critical component. so there's nothing to worry about

2. igfxsrvc.exe - is a process associated with Intel(R) Common User Interface from Intel Corporation. It is installed with graphic card drivers with Intel chipsets. This program is important for the stable and secure running of your computer and should not be terminated.

i wouldn't want to terminate this.

3. igfxtray.exe - is a process which allows you to access the Intel Graphics configuration and diagnostic application for the Intel 810 series graphics chipset. This program is a non-essential system process, and is installed for ease of use via the desktop tray.

also a non-critical component says liutilities.com

4. jqs.exe - uses about 1.5 Megabytes of computer memory and 2 Megabytes of virtual memory while running. It also initiates I/O processes frequently if those columns are activated in the Task Manager.

Now, if you want to disable the Java Quick Starter process you can do that in the Windows Control Panel. You find a Java entry there which will open the Java Control Panel.

A click on Advanced and the selection of Miscellaneous will display the activated Java Quick Starter entry. Uncheck the box to disable the process. This will be visible in the Windows Task Manager immediately.

5. jusched.exe - If you've looked in Task Manager and wondered what on earth the jusched.exe process is and if you can turn it off, then you are in luck. This process is the Java Update scheduler, which is a process that wastes memory all the time just to check once a month whether there are new updates to Java.

that's according to howtogeek.com
also check their instruction how to disable it

6. LClock.exe - this is for the LClock program copyrighted to ying han last 2004

7. lsass.exe - Local Security Authentication Server by Microsoft, Inc

liutilities.com recommendationis that lsass.exe should not be disabled, required for essential applications to work properly.

8. NBService.exe - It is a process required by Nero BackItUp for backup functions.

9. Notepad.exe - obviously for windows notepad

10. Photoshop.exe - for adobe photoshop

Contextual Stratification - Chapter 18: Mathematics and Logic

  The Last Refuge of Certainty If contextual stratification applies to physics, consciousness, psychology, and social systems, surely mathematics remains untouched. Mathematics doesn't depend on measurement, doesn't vary with scale, doesn't fragment across fields. Mathematical truth is absolute. The Pythagorean theorem was true before humans discovered it and will remain true after we're gone. 2+2=4 everywhere, always, regardless of context. This is mathematics' promise: pure certainty . While empirical sciences must revise their theories when new evidence appears, mathematical proofs are eternal. While human psychology shifts and social systems evolve, mathematical structures remain unchanging. While physical reality stratifies across scales, mathematical truth transcends all scales. It is not about the physical world at all, but about abstract logical necessity. Or so we thought. The 20th century delivered a series of shocks to this confidence. Kurt Gödel proved t...

How Corruption Should Be Implemented

A state collapses not because corruption exists, but because its corruption lacks discipline. The Philippines is no stranger to this art. From the smallest bribe to the grandest engineering scandal, the nation swims in a sea whose currents everyone feels yet pretends not to understand. You cannot cure what you refuse to look at. You cannot outmaneuver a shadow unless you study the hand that casts it. To speak of corruption without rage is taboo. Yet rage blinds. A ruler who wishes to reform must first learn the system as it truly is, not as moralists fantasize it to be. Condemnation can come later. Study must come first. A physician who blushes at disease is useless; a citizen who flinches at the truth of corruption is equally so. The disaster of the flood-control fiasco is not surprising. It is merely the natural consequence of corruption without structure, appetite without restraint, ambition without foresight. Such corruption devours allies and destabilizes its own conspirators. I...

Contextual Stratification - Chapter 27: A New Way Forward

The Question Changes Everything You've traveled from Newton's boundaries to your own internal conflicts, from quantum mechanics to daily choices, from the cosmos to consciousness. You've seen one pattern emerge everywhere: reality stratifies, frameworks have domains, boundaries are real, and Q=Fλ, Q⊆M explains why. But understanding changes nothing, unless it changes what you do next. This isn't the end of inquiry. It's the beginning of different inquiry. Not seeking final answers but asking better questions. Not forcing unity but navigating plurality. Not eliminating boundaries but recognizing them. Not claiming completion but accepting permanent incompleteness. Not one truth but understanding how truths relate. The framework is complete. The implications are just beginning. This final chapter asks: What becomes possible if we think this way? What questions should we ask? What might change in science, philosophy, education, culture, life? And most importantly: Wha...
