Process Monitor is a program that greatly expands the options available on the traditional Windows process monitor.

This program is a complete tool that lets you monitor absolutely all the active processes on your system, letting you set establish all kinds of filters to fine-tune any searches you may want to carry out.

With Process Monitor you can end processes that would be impossible to end using the windows administrator. Plus, just as you'll be able to end ongoing processes, you'll also be able to launch applications and files which Windows will recognize from within the program’s interface.

But that’s not all you’ll find among Process Monitor's monitoring functions; you can also see the percentage of memory use and the range of ongoing processes in real time.
