In this note, we discuss 处处 and 到处.
1. When 处处 indicates every aspect, we cannot use 到处 to replace it.
Example: 他处处表现得都很好，是个人才。He was a talented person with excellent performance in all respects.
2. If the verb that follows indicates a specific action or movement, we use 到处 instead of 处处.
Example: 孩子们要造反了，到处乱跑乱闹。The children are rising a rebellion. They are running around and making disturbances everywhere.
