When Windows hangs or
crashes, it's usually due to a single process or program that isn't
running properly. Sometimes you have to open the System Configuration or
Services tool to terminate a running process. Or you can open Process
Hacker and view it all at once. This free, open-source process viewer
displays all your running processes and services, including network and
disk processes, in color-coded tree views. Process Hacker's powerful
process termination capabilities bypass most security software and
rootkits, ending the entire affected process. Skilled users can take
advantage of Process Hacker's string scanning capabilities and other
filtering methods to view what is causing a thread to hang and debug
malware infections. But that's just a small sample of what Process
Hacker can do: It not only views threads but also handles, DLLs, tokens,
modules, memory lists, DEP status, and more. It can sandbox processes,
too.
Process Hacker's user interface is simple yet displays a lot
of useful information a well-configured space. The main window has tabs
to display Processes, Services, Network, and Disk data. The Processes
window displays active processes in a modified tree view, color-coded
for easy identification. There's no color key on the interface, but we
could customize the highlights (and just about everything else about
Process Hacker) under the program's Options. The Services tab is similar
to SysConfig's tool, but easier to use. Like the Services list, the
Network display is plain until activity is detected, and then Process
Hacker displays it with color coding. But Process Hacker does much more
than display and terminate processes and services. For instance, the
Tools menu includes utilities to Create Services, manage Pagefiles, and
Verify Signatures, among other utilities.
Since Process Hacker is
an open-source project, you'll find a lot of resources at its Web site,
including FAQs, forums, and even the source code. Clearly, it's much
more than a mere process viewer, and inexperienced users can get into
trouble if they're not careful. This powerful utility can force
termination of running processes, so be careful what you tell it to do.
In experienced hands, Process Hacker is a worthy toolkit.
