System - Monitoring (52)

FileAccessErrorView is a diagnostic tool for Windows that displays information about errors occur while programs running on your system try to open/read/write/delete a file. It displays the filename that the application tried to open/read/write/delete, the process id/name of the application, the error code (NTSTATUS code), the description of the error code, the number of times that this error occurred and the timestamp of this error.

Open Hardware Monitor tracks the temperature sensors, fan speeds, voltages, load and clock speeds of your computer.

FolderChangesView monitors the folder, disk drive, or even remote network share to see every file that is being modified, created, or deleted. Requires read permissions to the selected drive/folder.

Directory Monitor enables real-time monitoring for new files/folders or changes. The program can monitor unlimited directories and network shares, as well as filter results and execute a program/script at a given event. The program can log all changes and allows notifications via balloon messages or taskbar animation.

Supports relative folder locations. A pro version (see comparison) is available with additional features.

Restart on Crash is an monitoring tool that will watch the applications that you specify and automatically relaunch any program that hangs or crashes. You can add any number of applications to monitor, enable/disable them individually and edit the command line that will be used to restart an application.

Especially useful for unstable but critical programs.

NetConnectChoose lets you choose the default Internet connection for a given application. This is useful for security/speed (like using wired instead of wireless), to prevent overload, or save high bandwidth only for critical applications. Note that each connection must come from a different network adapter.

The program also displays extensive information about every active network/Internet connection, including network adapter name, MAC Address, Name Servers, MTU, Interface Speed, current incoming/outgoing data speed, number of received/sent packets, received/sent bytes, and more.

LastActivityView collects information from various sources on a running system and displays a log of actions made by the user and events that occurred on the machine. Events include running .exe files, any open/save dialog-boxes, opening file/folder from Explorer or other software, software installation, system shutdown/start, application or system crash, network connection/disconnection and more.

You can easily export this information into csv/tab-delimited/xml/html file or copy it to the clipboard and then paste into Excel or other software.

LoadedDllsView scans all running processes on your system and displays the list of all DLL files loaded by these processes. The program also shows the number of processes that load each DLL in the list. When selecting a file in the upper pane, the lower pane displays the list of all processes that use the selected file. You can also select one or more DLL files and then export the list into comma-delimited/tab-delimited/html/xml file.

NetworkCountersWatch displays system counters for every network interface on your system, which includes the numbers of incoming/outgoing bytes, incoming/outgoing and broadcast packets and more. You can also initialize all counters to zero at any time in order to watch the network counters for specific event. It also calculates and displays the current download and upload speed on your network interface.
