System Informer
System Informer is a versatile system management tool designed to seamlessly monitor and analyze system resources, troubleshoot software issues, and identify potential malware threats. Offers system activity overviews, intuitive graphs, real-time statistics, active network connection monitoring, detailed disk access information, intricate stack trace analysis, and much more. evily2k describes it "like process explorer on steroids. Allows me to kill process that task manager would say access denied."

I recently added -allow_third_party_software to my csgo game to use nvidia game filters to make my game look better and ever since i have had this weird icon on the top left of my screen, how do i get rid of it?
(VAC use to prevent you from playing with the below method, however it has since been removed from the support, but you should still use -insecure for the below method) You can also try using process hacker/system informer (github link) it's similar to task manager however right click on csgo.exe click properties and click on the the windows tab. From there you can view which library or process created a window.

FACEIT Anti-cheat - Secure boot requirement update!
This is not a false positive, there are security exploits in Process Hacker that are exploited by some cheats. I would suggest upgrading to the new version which is now called System Informer, where these issues are fixed. https://github.com/winsiderss/systeminformer

Anvir Task manager doubts
I've had it for well over a year and haven't noticed any ill effects. I find it handy for reporting when something has been added to startup or context menu etc, but I've never ran it "full time" as a task manager replacement. (Though for that purpose, I recently came across an app called System Informer that I like - https://systeminformer.sourceforge.io/)
- Unable to figure out where CPU usage is from, ProcMon/ProcExp/Task Manager don't show it

yes

How do you all feel about Windows?
There is QuickLook for Windows although is not as good as the macOS one: https://github.com/QL-Win/QuickLook
- Preview exel and word without have it installed, like a pdf file, no edition, just to visualise.

Whatever happened to Peek for Powertoys?
You can use QuickLook in the meantime.

Lightweight, offline, documents viewer (mainly PDF, PPT, Word)
QuickLook is pretty useful. It is basically the Windows Version of MAC's QuickLook.

File-Explorer that can display Readme.md files.
I've been using QuickLook for years, functions just like Preview in macOS (hitting the spacebar after selecting a file pops open a window with the content): https://github.com/QL-Win/QuickLook

Photoshop shows different colors and my gradients are ruined, all of this happened overnight. But everywhere else, the file preview's colors are correct. Do you know any reason? Is this related to the Pantone thing?
Why does the Quicklook app show the correct colors and photoshop doesn't?
What are some alternatives?
