Description:
The Task manager application is a bunch of several useful tools in just one tool. The name is maybe not appropriated anymore because of all the stuff it provides now. But at the beginning it was just made to manage all running processes as the Task Manager does in Windows on a normal PC.
For Windows Mobile 2003 SE users, please download this software here (228 KB) or its mirror here.
