Ways You Should Know To Stop Apps From Running In Background

Ways You Should Know to Stop Apps from Running in Background

If you use Windows 11, you can choose to disable some certain apps to run in background. Which means they will not be able to perform any tasks when you are not actively using them, thus saving battery and system resources.

Which Windows 11 apps can be chosen to stop running in background

In Windows systems, apps that can run in the background have the ability to keep sending and receiving notifications, syncing information, and staying up to date, even when you are not actively in these apps’ windows, which are commonly called Background Apps. These apps usually do not have a direct UI (user interface). Once deployed and configured, they launch automatically at startup and run continuously.

Some apps from the Microsoft Store can run in background. For example, Communications apps, like WhatsApp, Slack, or Microsoft Teams; News and Weather apps. If you find an app using a lot of battery when running in background or you do not need an app which is not crucial for the system at all , you can choose to disable its background permissions on your Windows 11 with the 4 methods in this article. By disabling background apps, you can reduce system resource usage and improve overall performance of your Windows 11.

Method 1. Disable a background app in Settings

You can stop an app from running in background using Windows Settings.

Step 1. Open the Installed apps page in Settings

Step 2. Open Advanced options of the app

Another way to access to the permissions of the background apps page is through the Battery usage. You might also find other apps here rather than those in the page of Installed apps. Below is how to navigate to it:

Windows Settings-System-Power & battery

Step 3. Choose Background apps permissions to Never

Noted: Repeat the above steps to disable multiple background apps. But if you want your Windows 11 to stay connected and get app updates, you must set at least one background app to Always.

Method 2 Disable all background apps in Group Policy Editor

The second way to disable a background app is to use the Group Policy Editor app.

Step 1. Open Group Policy Editor

Step 2. Navigate to App Privacy

Open the following key in Local Group Policy Editor:

Step 3. Disable Let Windows app run in the background

Method 3 Disable all background apps in Registry Editor

If you know Registry Editor well, you can also disable a background app by modifying the value in it. Be careful when using the Registry Editor, or any incorrect changes might cause negative consequences on system stability and functionality. It is recommended to create a backup or system restore point before making any changes in the Registry Editor.

Step 1. Open Registry Editor

Step 2. Navigate to AppPrivacy

Open to the following key in the Registry Editor app:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\AppPrivacy

Step 3. Create a new value in AppPrivacy

Step 4. Set the value to 2

It's properly formatted on Google, they have a Word Document that is free, you have to have a Google Account. If you use YouTube, have an account signed into it, there you go.

It will be the right-hand side next to your profile picture, click on the six dots in the shape of a square, it will be the Drive...they also have a Translate at the bottom for learning languages.

I would've figured this out sooner if I had quiet, not in debt and wasn't surrounded by children.

Here's everything that I know:

-There are 36, 37 if you count your account, apps on your Google Account

-If you need help, they'll have a generally asked questions site

-There will be tutorials on YouTube if you need help

-Take Notes, keep them simple and easy for YOU to understand, most phones, laptops and tablets will have sticky notes, word, or some alternative to Microsoft

-Every phone, laptop, tablet, etcetera will have a search bar to look up stuff on your phone, laptop, tablet, etcetera. It will be the same under settings.

-You can figure out the model of your phone blah blah blah and order parts online, I've done that with my old Gateway laptop.

-Public Libraries are a great place for Knowledge, finding books to read, going on the internet. Where I live, you'll need a library card (last I checked) If they still have it, they'll also have book sales, I found the Lord of The Rings book a long time ago.

-Nicer jobs have waitlists...at least, where I live (Michigan)

-You work too well, you'll fill 2-3 positions, like I did.

-If you live in a box and it's hot: Hot box

-You live by Nature, the branches can extend into pipes, damage them or have their roots in them... causing blockage.

-Heat rises, Heat rises

I could go into more detail, however I'm not. There are other individuals who can explain it better than I can with videos on YouTube; Spotify.
