    Put it in windows folder and you just win+r, and "procexp", and enter and you're on! ;) Only problem is that it lacks any network monitoring :(

    This is pretty much the first piece of software I install on any Windows computer I use. Nothing comes close in features.

    Brilliant little app that I've been using for years now. Nothing else really comes close to it in terms of process administration.

    It's the best! I run in at minimized in the system tray at start-up, so it's right there all the time to track memory/cpu usage, and kill dead processes. And its resource usage footprint is very low.

    I love PSExplorer - it is part of every install I do. The ability to look inside SVCHost processes and see whcih threads are misbehaving ----- LOVE IT !

    Process Explorer is the best one, i always let it running in background in system tray bar, if any program takes too much CPU, i can be noticed by its icon,and actully PE itself doesn't consume much cpu resource.

    I used to have this running in the background, but I came to a point where I simply didn't need it anymore and due to it's "too high" performance usage I stopped using it that much.

    Regardless, it works great and does several things in one neat application.

    A great tool for tracking just what each process on the computer is doing. Unfortunately, it can be pretty CPU intensive at times, which is probably why Microsoft has retained its classic Task Manager; this tool is only worth it for people who are trying to maximize the performance of other processes on their computer, or who are developing applications that may need to be terminated quickly.
