Like other SysInternals tools, ProcessExplorer is feature rich and very stable. It gives me quick insight to what processes are doing, helping me to identify and address misbehaving processes. I have it running on every machine that I use frequently.

Detailed process info, but lacks a total of Chrome's RAM usage. Hence i switched to Process Hacker.

It's pretty decent with how much data it provides, but it starts too slowly and has the chance to fail when your computer's running poorly. Not a good replacement for Windows Task Manager, but decent if you want to find information about your system otherwise.

It's listed under the I/O tab on the System Information window.

In version 14.01, how do you get the "Network Bytes" graph to appear in the System Information page?

What is Process Explorer?

Process Explorer shows you information about which handles and DLLs processes have opened or loaded. The display consists of two sub-windows. The top always shows a list of the currently active processes, including the names of their owning accounts, whereas the information displayed in the bottom window depends on the mode that it is in. The unique capabilities make it useful for tracking down DLL-version problems or handle leaks, and provide insight into the way Windows and applications work.
