Manage CIS Tasks


Click 'Tasks' > 'Advanced Tasks' > 'Open Task Manager'
  • Comodo Internet Security can run several tasks simultaneously.
  • For example, virus scans and virus signature database updates can run concurrently.
  • The 'Task Manager' interface lets you view all currently running tasks.

Open the task manager

  • Click 'Tasks' on the CIS home screen
  • Click 'Advanced Tasks' > 'Open Task Manager'


 

From the Task Manager interface, you can:
  • Reassign priorities to the tasks
  • Pause/Resume or Stop a running task
  • Bring a selected task to foreground

Reassign Priorities for a task


 

The 'Priority' column show the level of resources committed to the task at run. A higher priority means the task runs more smoothly, but consumes more system resources.


Change the priority of a task

    • Click the current priority and select the new one you want to assign:




      Pause/resume or stop running tasks

       

      Use the buttons in the action column to pause, resume or stop a process:

      • To pause a running task, click the 'Pause' button




       

      • Click the 'Resume' button to restart a suspended task




      • Click the 'Stop' button to terminate a running task




      Bring a running task to the foreground

      • To view the progress of a background task, select the task and click 'Bring to Front'
