It definitely can for the graphics card. I got a trojan one time that was mining crypto using 100% of the gpu causing it to heat up and blow the fan like crazy, and it stopped every time I opened the task manager.

I didn't even think of the possibility that a program could detect task manager.

Just keep task manager open and they cant do shit lol
