Process Explorer 16.02

Process Explorer is a very powerful alternative to the standard Windows Task Manager, with amount of tools and features that dwarf many professional solutions that are often offered to users only with
premium paid access. The program examines all the active processes, their sub-processes and all the handles and DLLs that they use. This can be extremely handy when tracking down DLL-version problems or handle leaks.

User interface of Process Explorer is divided into two main panes – the top one shows all the running processes, and the bottom one (depending on the chosen mode) shows either the handles or the DLLs that they use. With direct access to the listings of all active processes and in-depth information that can be called for each and every one of them, users with advanced technical knowledge about inner worksings of Windows OS and IT professionals can achieve total oversight of current Windows session. They can identify problematic processes, find out if unauthorized software is roaming on PC (malware, viruses, malicious background processes) and easily see real-time information about CPU activity (including workload overview of each individual CPU core or processing thread), RAM utilization, network traffic speeds and more.

Process Explorer was originally made by the developers from Sysinternals (currently named Winternals) who were purchased in full by Microsoft in the summer of 2006. Today this very lightweight app can be run on any PC that has enough hardware to use at least Windows XP.
