Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for resolving computing resource deadlocks. In one embodiment, the present invention includes detecting a set of deadlocked processes within a set of executing processes, cancelling a lowest priority process of the set of deadlocked processes, generating a requested resources report for the set of executing processes, and enabling a user to assign a priority level to a process. In one embodiment, resolving computing resource deadlocks will efficiently detect deadlocks by using a report already generated by the operating system detailing information about allocated resources. By analyzing the resources report to gain information regarding executing processes, deadlocks may be easily determined and remedied. Resolving computing resource deadlocks may be conducted by a utility or it may run as a service of the operating system.
