Process Hacker Is A Powerful Task Manager Clone
Windows only: System information utility Process Hacker is an open-source, portable task manager clone with loads of powerful features.
While Process Hacker is meant to look and work a little more like the built-in Task Manager, being easy to approach for regular users, it actually has many of the same features as the popular and powerful Process Explorer that we all know and love.
Along with the normal features one would expect from a process manager utility, you can add or delete services, read and write process data memory in a hex editor, search through memory with a regex, inject DLLs into running processes, and pretty much every other feature you can imagine. Process Hacker is free and open source, available for Windows only.

There is no reason to use this... It's just Process Explorer with some cut features, why not just keep using Process Explorer??

It has a .Net dependancy.
I'll stick with Process Explorer.

@saintseminole: But beware Free Extended Task Manager does NOT work in Windows 7!

So what makes this different to the mass of other task manager replacements that are on here every week? Seems like there are more of these than any other app.

@saintseminole: Gotta love that AutoHotKey
I can't remember if you've ever featured Free Extended Task Manager [[www.extensoft.com]]. I've been using it for several months, to the point where I was confident enough to use it as a replacement for the Windows task manager (when I hit CTRL+ALT+DEL, the replacement pops up).
Looks nice. ^__^ I will have to add this to my "little" collection of system tools. ^__^
