Hidden Process Detector1.0.0.1 Beta

Hidden Process Detector is a small program designed to check the processes running on your system and detect the ones that are hidden. As you probably hinted, the app can come in handy when you suspect you have a rootkit, a special type of malware capable of manipulating the standard behavior of the OS and run its processes hidden.

Simply run the tool to detect hidden processes

The application comes with a small and user-friendly interface that consists of a single window. You can get started by hitting the Detect button and then wait a couple of minutes for the tool to examine the running processes on your system.Following the analysis of your operating system, the application creates a plain text file where it displays the total number of running processes detected. The file also includes information on whether any hidden process has been detected among them.It is important to note that the application does not pack tools to help you remove malware from your computer, as its role is to inform you about the running processes. Therefore, if you detect suspicious activity, it is advisable that you contact the system administrator or security expert to remove it from your system.

A handy tool for detecting hidden processes and potential rootkits

The utility can be helpful to detect rootkits in your system, malware that can easily bypass antivirus solutions. The reason for this stems from the fact that they are designed to mask files on the system and create a hidden connection to the Internet. Depending on the reason they are created for, rootkits can make modifications to the hardware reporting and change the computer BIOS among other things.In the eventuality that you notice something is not working as it should with your system and you would like to determine whether a hidden process might be the culprit, then perhaps Hidden Process Detector could come in handy.
