Applications stealing focus is on of my biggest UI pet peeves. There's rarely a good reason for an application that I'm not using to interrupt what I'm doing.
Is there a way to disable focus-grabbing globally in OS X?

The only time I've ever seen "focus stealing" was when I was launching a bunch of applications at once, but didn't want them to gain focus. I do this when I start work in the morning; I have a script that launches about 5 or 6 apps I always use.
If this is your specific case, the behavior can be suppressed in apple script.

recently I found that a process is keep running on one of our company's windows EC2(Windows server 2012 R2).
It takes up lot of resources from CPU. however, it disappear after I open the task manager for a few seconds.
Anyone has knowledge of what it is.
It seems that your instance has been compromised and is mining cryptocurrency, explaining high CPU and magically disappearing when you want to look at its process.
More about the process SystemManagement.exe is in the link.

I'm curious how does Windows 10 S kernel implementation of CreateProcess know which process to run and which one to block?
For instance, if we take Notepad.exe:
It has no issues allowing it to run. And it is not even signed:
But the regedit.exe right below it, triggers this:
I'm curious, how do they differentiate between them?
EDIT: Forgot to mention. If you want to try it for yourself, Media creation tool now allows to create a Windows 10 S iso that runs fine in a VM.

I know that every account uses some space, but beside that, is it slowing down computer in some other way?
I have windows 7.
The only way it would impact performance (other than the disk space as you mentioned) is if more than one user is logged on to the machine at the same time, like when a "Switch User" is done, which pushes all User A's running processes (using RAM and CPU) to the background essentially so the new User B can then log on.

We recently purchased a Chromecast to cast to our old (but very good) computer monitor as a substitute TV. Unfortunately, the monitor doesn't support HDCP, so the Chromecast OS refuses to display anything. Is there anything we can do in software (I hear root can be achieved) to disable this requirement?
There is no official way of doing that; if you consider the reason behind the HDCP requirement, you'll realize that Google will not enable any means to disable that.

I have this problem now for a long time.
It happens that for example I have many Command prompt windows and notepad opened and suddenly I realize the windows are gone but the processes are still in Task manager.
Does anyone know what is going on. Did I press some kind of shortcut for this to happen.
Can I get them back somehow?
I found the culprit.
I started this software which caused the problems:
