2.5 Top Free Process Viewer Enhanced

 

I have several process viewers scattered across my various PCs but the one I find myself using most often is "What's Running" [1]. It's not the most powerful; SysInternal's excellent Process Explorer [2] takes that title. It's not the most informative; WinTasks [3] wins there. It's also slow to load. So why do I use it? Easy: it gives me the information I want in the way I want it. That's because "What's Running" is more than a process viewer, it's an excellent startup manager and port enumerator as well. That means I can just flick between the various tabs to get the full lowdown on what's running on my PC without leaving the product. The latest version 2.2 adds even more functionality to an already powerful product and also offers usability enhancements. The new feature I liked most was the ability to jump from an autostart entry to the running processes created by that entry. Try it, you may like it. Free for personal use, Windows 2000 and later, 1.1MB
