System Explorer can help you explore your system’s activity. It can effectively be used as a substitute for Windows Task Manager as it provides much more information than that you can get from the system’s built-in utility.

The application has a tabbed interface, which compartmentalizes information about four basic areas: running tasks, running processes, performance levels and activity history. However, it allows you to create new tabs to display further information about your system, such as modules, drivers, networking, users, and connections.

A major advantage of this program is that allows performing security scans. This checks running processes to detect threats using an online security database. While connecting to the Internet ensures that the latest information is always available, its downside is that this method requires an active Internet connection and downloads a great amount of data. Moreover, it may slow down the scanning process. You can perform checks to not only all running processes but also a single process.

In addition to monitoring the above mentioned data, the application also lets you end tasks or start new ones. Besides, it lets you apply various types of filters to the information. Finally, it also provides shortcuts to multiple Windows tools.

Love this program over Microsoft's cludge version. Bug Report: System Explorer version 7.1..0.5359 installed. Version via Winget is reported as unknown (and the current version shows as 7.0.0) and reinstall occurs everytime with the command: winget upgrade --all --include-unknown --wait -r. In Control Panel's Uninstall or Change a program screen, under name lists System Explorer 7.0.0 and under the version column shows blank. There was a similar problem with "WinDirStat.WinDirStat" wich was corrected by adding a DisplayVersion entry with accurate version number as data, in the program's registry uninstall section, which I can't seem to find for SystemExplorer. Please Advise here &/or if possible, directly to email.
