Security Process Explorer

Softonic review

A good Task Manager replacement

The apparent limitations in Windows standard Task Manager have encouraged many developers to create their own version of this tool, usually providing more information and more advanced tools.

This is the case of Security Process Explorer, a full featured task manager created by Glarysoft (who you may already know for their awesome Glary Utilities). This tool analyzes your system and creates a list with all the currently active applications and processes, each one of them complemented with extra data such as CPU and memory usage, threads, priority and also a rating according to the level of trust given by this program's users themselves. There's also a link to obtain more information about the selected process on the web, which takes you to a knowledge database created by Glarysoft (although the button clearly says "Google it!").

Security Process Explorer includes the usual set of features you find in this kind of apps: possibility to set priority, end any given process or see the associated files (DLL) linked to it. However, there are other Windows Task Manager replacements far more complete than Security Process Explorer.

Security Process Standard is a good alternative to the standard Windows Task Manager but it falls short of expectations when compared to other replacement tools.

Author's review

Security Process Explorer is an enhanced task manager, that provides advanced information about programs and processes running on the computer. It displays all the standard information, including file name, directory path, description, CPU usage etc. as well as a unique security risk rating. This rating is conclusive and relies on the expertise of the user to determine whether the process should be terminated or removed.

Security Process Explorer allows you to monitor CPU and memory usage graphs per process, view detailed processes information (with descriptions), stop and start new processes, set priorities and much more. You can easily find and remove unnecessary background processes as well as assigning more resources to demanding processes like games, realtime multimedia applications and cd writing softwares.
