1- System Explorer
System Explorer is a great free software which can also act as the defaultWindows task manager alternative but it is far more advanced tool as compared to Windows task manager. Let’s look at it’s features.
System Explorer provided very detailed information about tasks, processes, modules, startup items, IE addons, uninstallers, services, drivers, networkconnections and opened files. It can also check suspecious files via VirusTotal or Jotti service. It can also find details about the files online so we can be sure that the unknown process running is from a legitimate application or software. It has got a New Task launcher with an integrated auto search and auto-completion option. Another great option added in the new version of System Explorer is the system tray icon. This icon gives a hint of detailed system and battery status keeping us alerted in real time without distraction.

2- Kiwi Application Monitor
Kiwi Application Monitor is different from other task manager utilities in that it does not monitor each and every process and application. Instead it takes a different approach. We have to provide which applications we want to monitor and then Kiwi Application Monitor starts monitoring those specific applications. It monitors the following things:
- application start time
- run time
- average run time per session
- average run time per day
- average run time per active day
- max run time per session
- max run time per active day
- total run time
- current memory usage
- average memory usage
- peak memory usage in this session
- max peak memory usage
- cpu time used in this session
- days monitored
