Description

System Informer

A free, powerful, multi-purpose tool that helps you monitor system resources, debug software and detect malware. Formerly known as Process Hacker. Brought to you by Winsider Seminars & Solutions, Inc.

System Requirements

Windows 10 or higher, 32-bit, 64-bit, or ARM64.

Features

• A detailed overview of system activity with highlighting.
• Graphs and statistics allow you to quickly track down resource hogs and runaway processes.
• Can’t edit or delete a file? Discover which processes are using that file.
• See what programs have active network connections, and close them if necessary.
• Get real-time information on disk access.
• View detailed stack traces with kernel-mode, WOW64 and .NET support.
• Go beyond services.msc: create, edit and control services.
• 100% Free Software (MIT)

Antivirus False Positives

System Informer includes a kernel driver and can inspect and terminate other processes, so some antivirus engines flag it. These detections are false positives. The installer is signed by Winsider Seminars & Solutions Inc. and the software is open source. See the developer discussion:

• Avast detects the driver as vulnerable (#1908)
• Windows Defender flagged as a virus and crashed (#1722)
• Antivirus false alarms: can we fight them? (#1715)
• Flagged as a Potentially Unwanted Application (#1668)
• Trojan:Win32/Sabsik.TE.B!ml detected by Windows Defender (#1665)

Notes

• The application is not started after installation.
• This package tracks the stable release channel published at systeminformer.com/downloads, not the canary builds.
