Applications Redirection Viewer 1.0.1
What Can You Do with Applications Redirection Viewer?
Applications Redirection Viewer provides a thorough overview of the system applications initiated by Windows. It allows users to examine detailed information about app execution, including methods such as ShellExecute and execution aliases. This tool is invaluable for understanding how applications are being run within the operating system.
The goal of the Applications Redirection Viewer is to list application redirections done by the Windows operating system. It gathers information from the system, enabling you to explore application redirections being performed mostly behind the scenes.
Get Essential Data without the Hassle
Windows provides users tools like Task Manager and Control Panel to monitor installed applications and running processes. These tools are designed to help avoid potential problems by revealing essential system information. For those who want more, there are extra tools to explore the operating system more thoroughly, such as the Applications Redirection Viewer. This tool helps users understand built-in system apps and improves their knowledge of how the system works and performs.
Launching and Using Applications Redirection Viewer
Upon launching the Applications Redirection Viewer, an intuitive one-window interface presents a streamlined set of options. The primary feature of this interface is a large table that displays vital information about running applications and processes. This includes not only the software name but also details such as the redirection path, associated user profiles, the relevant API family, and the registry key linked to the executable. If applicable, the reparse point path is also displayed.
Applications Redirection Viewer can list two different redirection types:
ShellExecute redirection: which affects ShellExecute and ShellExecuteEx (and so, double-clicking in Windows Explorer)
Applications execution aliases: (present since Win 10) that affect all process creation, aka CreateProcess, NtCreateProcess, NtCreateProcessEx, ShellExecute, ShellExecuteEx, among others.
You can interact with the entries in the table by right-clicking, which opens a context menu offering several actions: navigating to the corresponding registry key, accessing the application's location, launching the application, and viewing its properties. If any unusual activity is detected, you can search online using the application's name to gather additional information and enhance your understanding of the software in question.
Geek Verdict
Applications Redirection Viewer offers invaluable insights into the intricate workings of Windows' system processes and application executions, making it an indispensable tool for system administrators and power users alike. With sophisticated built-in search features and regex support, users can effortlessly uncover essential background applications that are integral to the operating system. This powerful tool not only enhances your understanding but also empowers you to optimize system performance like never before.
