Sysinternals Procmon 1.26

Procmon, short for Process Monitor, is a powerful Windows system monitoring utility developed by Sysinternals. It allows users to monitor and log real-time activity in the operating system.

Procmon is available for free on the official Sysinternals website (www.sysinternals.com). Simply navigate to the Procmon page and click on the 'Download' button.

Procmon is compatible with Windows operating systems starting from Windows XP SP2 and higher, including both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.

Procmon provides powerful event filtering capabilities. You can filter events based on various criteria, such as process name, operation type, path, result, etc. Filter settings can be configured through the 'Filter' menu or by using keyboard shortcuts.
