The examples for the command "tasklist"

Here are examples of using the `tasklist` command in Command Prompt: Example 1: View all running processes:

tasklist

- This command prints a list of all running processes with information such as process name, process ID (PID), session number and memory usage. Example 2: Filtering process information by process name:

tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq notepad.exe"

- `/FI "IMAGENAME eq notepad.exe"`: This filter only displays information about the process named "notepad.exe". Example 3: Displaying advanced information about processes:

tasklist /V

- `/V`: This parameter outputs extended information about processes, including username, window title and session number. Example 4: Viewing processes on a remote computer:

tasklist /S remote computer /U username /P password

- `/S Remote Computer`: The name or IP address of the remote computer. - `/U username`: The username for authentication on the remote computer. - `/P password`: The password for authentication on the remote computer. Example 5: Filtering process information by username:

tasklist /FI "USERNAME eq username"

- `/FI "USERNAME eq username"`: This filter only shows processes of the specified user. Example 6: Displaying processes in a tree structure (hierarchy):

tasklist /V /FO TREE

- `/V`: Extended information about processes. - `/FO TREE`: Displays the processes in a hierarchical tree structure. These examples show various use cases for the `tasklist` command in the Command Prompt. The command is useful for getting an overview of running processes and displaying detailed information about specific processes. Note that the `tasklist` command can be run by default without administrative privileges to obtain information about processes in the current user context. Example 7: Show specific columns in the output:

tasklist /FI "STATUS eq running" /FO TABLE /NH

- `/FI "STATUS eq running"`: Filters processes by their status (in this case "running"). - `/FO TABLE`: Outputs the output in a tabular form. - `/NH`: Suppresses the header of the table. Example 8: Display CPU information for processes:

tasklist /V /FI "MEMUSAGE gt 10000" /FI "CPUTIME gt 00:05:00"

- `/V`: Extended information about processes. - `/FI "MEMUSAGE gt 10000"`: Filters processes with memory usage greater than 10,000 KB. - `/FI "CPUTIME gt 00:05:00"`: Filters processes with a CPU time greater than 5 minutes. Example 9: Show process information to all users:

tasklist /V /FO CSV

- `/V`: Extended information about processes. - `/FO CSV`: Outputs the output in CSV format. Example 10: View processes and export output to a file:

tasklist /V > processlist.txt

- `/V`: Extended information about processes. - `>ProcessList.txt`: Pipes the output to a text file named "ProcessList.txt". Example 11: View processes and sort output by CPU usage:

tasklist /V /FO TABLE /NH | sort /+60

- `/V`: Extended information about processes. - `/FO TABLE`: Outputs the output in a tabular form. - `/NH`: Suppresses the header of the table. - `| sort /+60`: Sorts the output by the sixth column (CPU usage). These examples show various ways the `tasklist` command can be used to extract and display specific information about processes. You can customize the filter options and formatting options depending on your needs.
