GVD Process Task Utility Description
If an application stops responding, Windows notifies you in an attempt to close it so that it doesn’t use system resources for no reason. However, suspicious processes can also be forcefully killed through the Task Manager. In case you find it too difficult to work with, alternatives like GVD Process Task Utility want to make things a bit easier.
Can be used on the go
Unlike the task manager in Windows, this one doesn’t depend on any registries to run, and doesn’t root itself to the operating system. This means you can carry it around on a USB flash drive to use its features on other computers as well. Another consequence of portability is that system registries remain intact, no matter what.
As the name might suggest, the application wants to be a Task Manager alternative, but only dedicated to processes. These are shown in a compact main window which, sadly, can’t be resized, making it difficult to get a clear view in case the process tree is crowded. Corresponding details like name PID, and path are also shown.
Several advanced operations
There aren’t any buttons attached to the main window, and this is because all functions you get to work with are stored in the context menu. Needless to say that basic operations imply killing the selected process, with an additional option to rename the file, and remove attributes, so it doesn’t start again automatically.
GVD Process Task Utility also comes with some advanced utilities, such as viewing the hosts file, bring the hosts file to default configurations, empty temp folders, clean hiding places, or even kill all non-essential processes and services. In addition, you can export a TXT list of all active tasks.
To sum it up
On an ending note, GVD Process Task Utility wants to be a suitable alternative to the Windows Task Manager, but doesn’t really manage to stand out from the crowd. Sure enough, all basic stop operations can be performed, with options to batch kill non-essential processes, but feels a little rough around the edges overall.
