ProcessMonitor : Keep track of processes that you need to make sure are running all the time and automatically restart them if they terminate using this tool
Generally speaking, certain processes that are related to the operating system or perhaps, security or network applications you use regularly should always be running. Unfortunately, since some of them work in the background, it may be difficult for you to keep track of whether a process is no longer running and you need to restart it.ProcessMonitor is a lightweight piece of software that can bring a solution to this problem, namely keeping track of various processes and automatically restart them if they terminate for various reasons.
Enables you to launch the same or other processes with specific parameters
The app does not require installation or configuration and you can use it as soon as you decompress the archive. The interface is similar to the Windows console, but it is quite intuitive and straightforward, so you are unlikely to have any troubles.Functionality-wise, the utility entails you specify the processes that you want to monitor and what to launch if and when it closes for various reasons. It is worth mentioning that the app allows you to launch the new process with parameters, an option that can come in handy for apps you know you are experiencing a certain error. Other settings include specifying the interval that the app should verify of the process is running or terminated.
A straightforward tool that helps you keep processes running on your PC
