View All User Accounts’ Resource Usage App History in Windows 11 Task Manager

This article provides instructions on how to view Resource Usage App History for every user account in the App History section of Windows 11 Task Manager. The illustration below displays the resource usage statistics for all user accounts, including both the current user and system accounts, within the Task Manager.

The App History tab in Windows 11 Task Manager provides usage statistics for desktop software and Microsoft Store applications over the previous 30 days. Users can monitor CPU time, network activity (including downloads and uploads), differentiated by metered and non-metered connections, plus overall network usage for notifications for each application shown in this tab. However, by default, the resource usage history is restricted to the current user. This guide caters to those seeking to expand their view to include app history for all user accounts within the Windows 11 Task Manager.

3. Expand the Other options section.
4. Check the box for the Show history for all accounts option.
