'''How to: Use the Threads Window'''
Threads window columns:
* The flag column - can be used to flag a thread for special attention;
* The active thread column - indicates an active thread (Yellow arrow), and the thread where execution broke into debugger (Black arrow);
* The ''ID'' column - displays identifier of the thread;
* The ''Managed ID'' column - displays managed identifier for managed threads;
* The ''Category'' column - displays category of the thread, for example, Main Thread or Worker Thread;
* The ''Name'' column - displays name of the thread;
* The ''Location'' column - displays where the thread is running (Can be expanded to provide full call stack for the thread);
* The ''Priority'' column - displays assigned (By system) priority for the thread;
* The ''Suspended Count'' column - displays suspended count value (Suspended count indicates whether a thread is suspended or not. If suspend count value is 0, a thread is NOT suspended);
* The ''Process Name'' column - displays the process name to which each thread belongs;
