Windows 2000 – Mehr Systemressourcen für Office XP Anwender

Die Datei „ctfmon.exe ist ein Teil von Office XP oder einzelner Komponenten wie z.B. Word 2002, Access 2002. Dahinter steckt ein Programm welches alle geöffneten Fenster überwacht und für diese dann Spracherkennung, Schrifterkennung und andere Texteingabegeräte zur Verfügung stellt. Leider lässt sich diese Tool (Welches durch seine Funktionen an den Leistungsreserven des Computers nagst) nicht über herkömmliche Wege vom Autostart ausschließen. Weder über die Registry noch über msconfig… Das Programm erscheint sofort wieder.

In rare cases, problems occur when you try to remove the "tool. If necessary, you can undo the changes. And this is how you switch off the tool:

1. Go to the control panel and open "Software. Now select your Office product and choose "Change. After a short time, a selection appears where you can choose "Next because the required option "Features Add or change... is already marked.

2. Now click once on the "+ before "Shared Office Features, click with the right mouse button on "Alternative user input and select from the menu that appears "Not available. After clicking on "Refresh the resource waster has disappeared.

Unfortunately, the drivers for the various input devices are still in memory. They can be found in the control panel under "Keyboard and select "HardwareNow delete all drivers except "Standard keyboard 101/102 keys... (Or the specially selected driver).

The last step is to remove any DLL files that have been left behind. With "Start > "Execute a command line appears in which you can now enter "Regsvr32.exe /u msimtf.dll and confirm with "Ok. Then open the "Execute menu again, this time enter "Regsvr32.exe /u Msctf.dll in.

Congratulations! You've done it - the tool has completely disappeared.
