Is it possible to print out the list of "Processes" that are displayed in Windows Task Manager?  I would like to have a hard copy of the processes running on my machine, but I haven't determined how to print the list.  (I need to compare the processes running on my machine with the processes running on another, separate machine.) Please help!  Thank you

    Within the Task Manager go to Options and uncheck Always on Top. Then

    maximize Processes.

    Once done, select Alt/Print Screen. Then Start/Run or use the Win Logo Key

    and the letter R.

    Either way, type in mspaint then hit enter. Once done go to Edit/Paste,

    then File Save.

    Or

    Alternatively, use the command line command tasklist. For example, in

    Start >Run, type

    tasklist /FO CSV>C:\tasklist.csv [click OK]

    This will produced an Excel spreadsheet of the Task Manager information

    Pakcouk:

    I tried your suggestion on this from back in 2010 by doing the "Alternatively, use the command line command tasklist. For example, in 

    Start >Run, type 

    tasklist /FO CSV>C:\tasklist.csv [click OK] 

    This will produced an Excel spreadsheet of the Task Manager information" 

    It seems to process fine, but where do I find the list that it created???

    Do note that the list of processes is just a point-in-time snapshot of what's running when the snapshot is taken.  As different things happen on the system, different processes may be running.
