#CACHEMAN WINDOWS 10 TRIAL#
I was, with a little trial and error, able to produce a Power Efficiency Diagnostics Report and open the html file on my new Lenovo Thinkpad. Thanks very much for your efforts and your comments. It LOOKS sophisticated, but one wonders whether it will perform when it really counts.
#CACHEMAN WINDOWS 10 HOW TO#
I mentioned KB 19016, which describes a Machine Options setting for "Stop running tasks and shut down," but the representative said this configuration option was no longer available in version 2014.Īs a first-time user, having encountered a novice-level programming error, a customer support rep who doesn't know how to look up problems in a database, and a company that apparently doesn't pay attention to its own user forums, I'm having second thoughts about whether I want to trust this program. I have no idea whether this is true (does anyone know?), but this would seem preferable to killing the process with a hard shut-down of the machine. I asked him how (since no Cancel option was presented on the screen), and he confirmed my suggestion that the Windows Task Manager might work in this situation. Later, he told me I could have "cancelled" the operation.
I used the online support chat function to get help, and the representative initially told me he was not familiar with the "Operations are in progress." message. This is amateurish programming, bordering on incompetent - especially since the user confusion caused by this message is documented many times in these forums. It does not provide the user with available options for exiting the procedure and the consequences of doing so. It does not describe the operation or how long it is likely to take.ģ. It does not state which application or system is sending the message.Ģ. At the risk of stating the obvious, this message fails the user friendliness test in several areas:ġ. I'm sorry to say that the message "Operations are in progress, please wait" survives in Acronis 2014 with 64-bit Windows 7. I hope this can help Acronis and all of you to get the right solution for the problem.
#CACHEMAN WINDOWS 10 PC#
I can now power down my PC and get the updates installed. I uninstalled the program Cacheman and the problem was gone. ) So, to me it looked like a loop forever. Cacheman was called by winint.exe, (wininit.exe was called by. By using the Process ID (PID) I found out that wininit.exe was called by a program “Cacheman”. There were 2 programs from Acronis: afcdpsrv.exe and schedul2.exe running.
I then used “Process Explorer” to see what was running before I shut down. Since I was NOT actually running Acronis when Powering down I did not suspect that it was related to Acronics until I found this problem in this forum. My problem was: When PowerDown my system would hang FOREVER saying: “Operations are in progress, please wait.”įor many months I was not able to do those updates which needed PowerDown. “Operations are in progress, please wait.”
