I'll admit it: I'm a newbie. I've seen you talk about
downloading something called "Process Explorer". Great, just how do I go about
doing that? Did I mention I'm a newbie?

Not a problem. Process Explorer is one of my favorite, can't live without
it, tools. I recommend it's use frequently when diagnosing problems.
But rather than describing how to download it, let me show you.

I've put together a short, two minute video walking through the steps to
download, open and run Process Explorer. Hopefully viewing that'll explain
things better than I could describe.

Mr Leo,
I am having a problem of uninstalling a program named Registry Cleaner. I went to all the files and deleted six of them that came with Registry Cleaner. I have also ran the search program and evidently it is on another program, but I can not find it. Is there any hope of ever being able to uninstall this program?
I have a Compaq Presario, using XP SP2...
Thanks Leo, Phil Dedrick

Posted by: celeste at November 9, 2006 9:17 AMOn the contrary ... at the very bottom of the new page is a link labeled "Download Process Explorer (1.5 MB)". The page has moved and looks very different, but the download link is most DEFINITELY there.
Posted by: Leo Notenboom at November 9, 2006 9:50 AMWasn't able to view the video on downloading Process Explorer? But don't I already have something similar to Process Explorer on my Windows XP? Thanks.
