how to shut down utilman.exe under XP
I am trying to install SP1a on Windows XP and cannot
replace file utilman.exe as Windows says the file is in use. I cannot see it on a task list. Does it show up as a service or something else? I have never had this sort of problem when adding service packs to Windows NT or 2000. currently stuck John |

how to shut down utilman.exe under XP
Utilman is the Utility Manager application that controls accessibility
features. Try turning it off by pressing Windows Key + U. If that doesn't work, turn it off from Start All Programs Accessories Accessibility Utility Manager. In Windows 2000, it ran as a service. Don't know about NT. Rocky "John" wrote in message ... I am trying to install SP1a on Windows XP and cannot replace file utilman.exe as Windows says the file is in use.

how to shut down utilman.exe under XP
thanks Rocky
I am unable to turn Utility Manager off as suggested using the Windows key + U. I have read that it is not started automatically unless it has been configured as a service or you hit some other key combination. I am also unable to run or disabled it via Programs Accessories Accessibility Utility Manager and it gives an error "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." John |
