Renaming the "python.exe" process in Windows Task Manager to a unique name can be helpful when you need to distinguish between multiple Python processes running simultaneously. Here are the steps to do it:
- Open Task Manager by pressing the "Ctrl + Shift + Esc" keys or by right-clicking the taskbar and selecting "Task Manager".
- Go to the "Details" tab and find the "python.exe" process that you want to rename.
- Right-click the process and select "Properties".
- In the "Properties" dialog box, go to the "Image" tab.
- In the "Image name" field, enter the new name that you want to give to the process (e.g., "my_python.exe").
- Click "OK" to save the changes.
The process should now appear in Task Manager with the new name that you specified. Note that renaming a process in Task Manager doesn't actually change the executable file name, so the original "python.exe" file will still be used.
