Curiosity usually gets the best of me, and in the realm of computers that’s especially true. Say, for example, when my computer’s running extra slow – I usually open up Task Manager to see what’s up. I hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete, Ctrl+Shift+Esc or right-click on my task bar to start the Task Manager, and in seconds I’m looking at what’s gobbling up my precious processing power.

So, I know what’s eating up my resources, but where’s the culprit hiding, exactly?

Well, in Windows 7 or Vista, that’s pretty easy to find out! Make sure you’re under the Processes tab in Task manager and right-click the Image name in question. Select Open File Location.

If there is indeed a location you can access, an Explorer window will pop up and show you the location of said file!

Neat! That oughta sate my curiosity for awhile!
