This full-featured system analyzing tool lets you take a sneak peek at everything that's going on in your system, from currently active processes to installed drivers, including also network connections, startup applications, system services and opened files, among other elements.

System Explorer features a renewed interface with a left-side pane where you can browse the different system areas controlled by the program, and a main window to display the selected area.

The good thing about System Explorer is that it enables you not only to see what's brewing in your system, but also take action. That is, you can end any active program, set the priority for a selected process or delete items from the startup menu, to name a couple of examples. Another feature I specially liked is the ability to obtain more information about each process from Google and ProcessLibrary.com, or check it for virus with an online antivirus tool. The only thing I missed was having a proper Help section to make the most of System Explorer's tools, rather than just an online knowledge base.

In all, System Explorer is efficient, useful and easy to use. Even if you're happy with the Windows Task Manager, which I doubt, you should definitely give this great app a try. You have nothing to lose!

System Explorer is a full-featured task and process manager that gives you an exhaustive view of all the activities currently going on in your system.
