    hey Karthikeyan,

    Thank you for the cool trick.. :)

    Will the system performance not get affected by changing the AutoEndTasks to 1? I mean is it good to change the value…

    Regards

    For safety Microsoft has setup AutoEndTasks = 0, In this case if you set AutoEndTasks=1 you may loss some safety measures. so do it under your own risk
