    Is it possible upon startup to have my Task Manager automatically open to the Processes tab, sorted by memory usage, with the highest number on top? I admit, it doesn't kill me to take two mouse clicks and do this, but it would be cool for me if this could be done.

    If it is XP go to C:\Windows\System32\taskmgr.exe.

    Make a shortcut to it by right click/create shortcut.
    Put the shortcut in the in the Startup folder in the start menu.

    Taskmanager will open to the last tab selected.

    How could you get TM to open to a certain tab?

    It does open up to the tab I want, but it appears to be sorting by CPU, not Memory Usage. So I'm halfway there.

    Do you have TM opening automatically upon boot-up or do you have to click to open?
