Microsoft not happy in being ugly itself, now exports ugliness to Mac OS.

If you ever used the abomination that was iTunes for Windows, you would say this is retaliation that is long overdue.

This is almost as bad as that Notepad++ vibecoded clone for Mac OS that got posted here a few months ago.

A program developed by Microsoft... Yeah, I'm not gonna use it. Probably bad like task manager.

The sysinternals suite is actually great and far higher quality than the rest of windows.

how was it even possible to get such an ugly toolbar with Swift?

It's obviously a straight port without much UI/UX optimization at the moment. I'm still fascinated that the port was possible at all.

The more important question is: Does it work well yet?

I have to admit that I was intrigued at first... until I saw the UI. Too bad, but maybe they'll find more Mac-like icons at some point.

Process Explorer offers 1000x the observability , including sockets, file handles, libs, syscalls , threads, cpu state -- nearly every resource in use. It's a tremendous tool .

Don't overlook it just because of your backwards bias against the vendor. It wasn't originally developed by MS anyway -- Sysinternals were consultants that got acquired by MS.

Something you should aspire to.

This looks to be still in deep alpha.

It initially listed a lot of processes, but failed to display anything in the three main columns (CPU, footprint, memory), and nothing at all in the details at the bottom.

Then, when the privileged helper was installed and approved through Login Items, nothing came up ever again. All panels of the window are now blank, even after a full restart of the app.

Edit: I did not build from source, I used the downloabable DMG from the release assets.

Probably phones the mothership every minute and continuously requests an update. /s
