What it is

Remote Process Explorer manages and monitors processes on local and remote Windows computers in real time. It can stop processes, start new ones, change priorities, and shut down or restart remote computers.

Computer management features include groups, on/off status, automatic list refresh, an Add Computers Wizard and separate accounts for each computer. The maker says remote computers need no additional software because the program uses built-in operating system functions. It can be downloaded and run on a user's own network without registration. The free Personal License is for non-commercial use on one computer and excludes support and maintenance. The Business License costs $149.95 as a one-time purchase for one machine; the Corporate License costs $2,999.95 as a one-time purchase for unlimited installations within one organization.
