Show processes starting with (763 processes in database):
"Smss.exe - You cannot end this process from Task Manager.
This is the session manager subsystem, which is responsible for
starting the user session. This process is initiated by the system
thread and is responsible for various activities, including launching
the Winlogon and Win32 (Csrss.exe) processes and setting system variables.
After it has launched these processes, it waits for either Winlogon or Csrss
to end. If this happens ""normally,"" the system shuts down.
If it happens unexpectedly, Smss.exe causes the system to stop responding (hang)."
