I can't tell you how much you've helped me by making this tutorial. I had no idea how to use procmon and I feel so more comfortable after watching your video. You went above and beyond by providing us with a deck and notes. Thank you Lowell.
You are truly a blessing, an anointed teacher with the spirit of excellence, and I appreciate you sharing your God given gift with the public and me for free .
Thank you sir. I was already using process explorer and autoruns but i was looking for a solid video about Process monitor. Just a 2 second peak in your channel made me to instantly subscribe. Instead on relying on blog advice who give links to 10 different tools to download(some of them not free also), a friend of mine told me to take the time and start learning myself how to use already available valuable tools. little by little, my pc started getting healthier as i was understanding more and more. The main positive thing here is that not only i can make my pc run smoothly and troubleshoot, but the fact that by studying, exploring and using these tools, i now also understand why a thing causes problems and what kind of fixes might work. Wishes for a happy 2021 to you and everyone.
Take a look at my 4-part video series called: Practical Steps to Troubleshooting Windows 10 and applications. Part 1 th-cam.com/video/OXvGAAnu7FE/w-d-xo.html It's a deep dive into Windows 10 for the serious troubleshooter and I explore many tools to better understand how Windows works. Thanks for watching!
@@TechsavvyProductions I will definitely do that. I am a windows 10 user and the agony i have experienced with sudden and insisting BSOD's, problems with drivers that stopped working after WIndows updates even though they were the latest version etc, could drive a person nuts. Thank you once again. Such a great channel you built here.
Thanks Mr. Vanderpool!! Totally new to ProcMon as a tool, and you provided some much needed clarity in a very quick, well-worded tutorial. Can't wait to start using this in an enterprise setting.
@@TechsavvyProductions Thank you for an amazing or perhaps the best explanation I have seen. Could you help me with the below. where can I find the videos of : windows troubleshooting like a pro ?
Thanks Lowell it really Helped in Understanding. Also I would like to know that is there any mechanism or an article or infact a video that can help us how to troubleshoot RDS(Remote Desktop Services) technology scenarios using Procmon.
Very erudite tutorial, Mr Vanderpool. We are beginning to incorporate more or ProcMon into our curriculum and this is very helpful indeed. Thank You, Sir!
Thanks for the comment, actually most of my videos are constantly using sysinternals tools as part of the training. Watch my videos and I promise you will see a lot of exploring how to use sysinternals tools to understand concepts and troubleshoot.
Thank you for making this video. I hv invest 25 minutes of life into a learning how to debug stupid visual studio insfaller that crashss. I am gonna use this to see if I can fix it. If we had the source code of stupid VS Installer I cud get 3 days of life back :)
I have watched tons of procmon vids but this is excellent. Just want i was looking for ... thank you so much. i wonder if you past vids on App Packaging with installshield or wise studio
Wise studio is a great product but have not done a video on it, a number of great sites that share techniques on App Packaging are available. Thanks for watching and the comment!
Very informative and well explained video. Right amount of content. It would be good if you could similar one for process explorer as well. Thank you very much again for this and your other wonderful videos :)
More seriously: I love Windows, I love Mark, I have seen a lot of videos about "case of the unexplained", I have read the sysinternals books etc... But I have to admit: I have NEVER solved a real life issue with Procmon :( The problem is: there are too many events. So yes, this is very good but at the end, and you said the same in the video, it is all about filters. And you example is unfortunately a good example of what I am facing when tryng to solve an "unexplained" issue at work. This morning I was fighting with a W10 pc on which I was not able to install this fucking "Oracle database Integrator". After removing a lot of elements in Porcmon, I was still having 900.000 events. Because this program is a setup.exe mixed with a Java JDK and JRE program, mixed with some envrionnement variables and so on, there was still to many elements in Procmon that prevented me to find the culprit. In you example you are still seeing 5000 events that could be the cause of you Opera issue. And you stop the troubleshooting here, like me this morning because at the end we still don't know what is failing :) To finish my story, I found the solution to my ODI issue byunderstanding that the Java JDK that I have installed was to "recent" for ODI. I had to dolwnload old java JDK 7 to make the ODI able to install. So yes, Procmon is a good tool but when you have a REAL unexplained issue, this is very very very hard to solve it with procmon only...
Thanks for sharing your frustration and comments. You are solving tough problems and we both know they require experience, intuition, sometimes science and sometimes art. Keep up the great work of solving tough problems.
As a SysAdmin/HelpDesk tech, I fully appreciate your insight and am grateful for your wealth of useful knowledge. The issue that has been a thorn in my side that I haven’t solved yet is the white box/bar along the top of an app that prevents the user from clicking anything in the covered area. The event happens when a user with dual monitors opens a pdf and sets it to full screen. The only common elements between users is dual monitors, windows 10, and Outlook. It happens with different brands of video cards. Any thoughts? I have spent a lot of time on this issue mainly because one of our lawyers who works with our CEO has been experiencing this and I have done everything up to and including building a new machine. It still comes back...
Actually all of Sysinternal tools are portable (meaning they do not require install), there is so much I did not have time to cover in this video! Command-line options, scripting, using it with PS.exe and so much more. Thanks for watching.
I can't tell you how much you've helped me by making this tutorial. I had no idea how to use procmon and I feel so more comfortable after watching your video. You went above and beyond by providing us with a deck and notes. Thank you Lowell.
Glad I could help!
You are awesome Lowell. I greatly appreciate your sharing of knowledge with technical community . Thanks for sharing .
Thanks for the comments and for watching!
This tutorial is really GOLD! I've been looking for these debugging capabilities for years - so far I was just merely "guessing" for so many issues!
Thanks for watching!
You are truly a blessing, an anointed teacher with the spirit of excellence, and I appreciate you sharing your God given gift with the public and me for free .

Awesome ...the best part is the simplicity of the explanation of technology
So glad it was helpful!

I hope to add a new video on this tool for those who would like to better understand how to troubleshoot with it. Thanks for the comment.
Thank you for teaching me how to fish, rather than giving me a fish. Bless you for sharing your knowledge.

Great instruction video. However, the link to notes and slide deck are dead.
So sorry, fixed! They are restored. Thanks for watching.
@@TechsavvyProductions Thank you for your prompt resurrection :).
This is just what I wanted...
Thanks for watching, it is the basics but it will help get you started.

Can we monitor processes while Windows booting? My Windows is hanging on the boot screen longer than usual
Yes, download the video notes there is a section on doing that. Thanks for watching!

You should have mention that Process Monitor has a portable version

I am so early that the video is not yet in HD lol
This is my first video using 60 fps. I am hoping it improves the quality.
@@TechsavvyProductions Yes for this kind of tool with a lot of text in small fonts this is imrpoving a lot :) thanks!
I want pdf notes
For many of our lectures you can find a download link in the video description. This lecture also. Thanks for watching.
why would you call it "opra" there is definetely an e inside it so please spell it right "opera"
Thanks for the comment, video editors do not have spell check so left to myself alone mistakes can happen. Thanks for watching!
Can you do one on process explorer too? If you already have you can disregard this comment
This begins a seven video series covering many tools including process explorer.exe th-cam.com/video/H1eN5kGJ5oc/w-d-xo.html
