System Informer is a powerful free and open source process viewer. ## Getting started Simply run SystemInformer.exe to start System Informer. There are two versions, 32-bit (x86) and 64-bit (x64). If you are not sure which version to use, open Control Panel > System and check the "System type". You cannot run the 32-bit version of System Informer on a 64-bit system and expect it to work correctly, unlike other programs. ## System requirements Windows 7 or higher, 32-bit or 64-bit. ## Settings If you are running System Informer from a USB drive, you may want to save System Informer's settings there as well. To do this, create a blank file named "SystemInformer.exe.settings.xml" in the same directory as SystemInformer.exe. You can do this using Windows Explorer: 1. Make sure "Hide extensions for known file types" is unticked in Tools > Folder options > View. 2. Right-click in the folder and choose New > Text Document. 3. Rename the file to SystemInformer.exe.settings.xml (delete the ".txt" extension). ## Plugins Plugins can be configured from Hacker > Plugins. If you experience any crashes involving plugins, make sure they are up to date. The ExtendedTools plugin is only available for Windows Vista and above. Disk and Network information provided by this plugin is only available when running Process Hacker with administrative rights.
