It is equivalent to the ps command in Unix and Unix-like operating systems and can also be compared with the Windows task manager (taskmgr).
Windows NT 4.0, the Windows 98 Resource Kit, the Windows 2000 Support Tools, and ReactOS[3] include the similar tlist command. Additionally, Microsoft provides the similar PsList command as part of Windows Sysinternals.[4]
Usage
editMicrosoft Windows
editOn Microsoft Windows tasklist shows all of the different local computer processes currently running. tasklist may also be used to show the processes of a remote system by using the command: tasklist /S "SYSTEM".
Optionally, they can be listed sorted by either the imagename, the PID or the amount of computer usage. But by default, they are sorted by chronological order:
C:\Users\Gigabyte>tasklist Image Name PID Session Name Session# Mem Usage ========================= ======== ================ =========== ============ System Idle Process 0 Services 0 20 K System 4 Services 0 1,008 K smss.exe 300 Services 0 84 K csrss.exe 468 Services 0 600 K wininit.exe 532 Services 0 132 K services.exe 636 Services 0 4,672 K lsass.exe 644 Services 0 6,532 K svchost.exe 752 Services 0 4,824 K nvvsvc.exe 788 Services 0 208 K nvSCPAPISvr.exe 812 Services 0 1,464 K svchost.exe 856 Services 0 5,260 K svchost.exe 916 Services 0 9,308 K svchost.exe 944 Services 0 26,012 K svchost.exe 128 Services 0 13,720 K svchost.exe 364 Services 0 52,152 K BootRacerServ.exe 1060 Services 0 948 K svchost.exe 1108 Services 0 9,408 K spoolsv.exe 1276 Services 0 648 K svchost.exe 1308 Services 0 16,184 K sqlwriter.exe 1700 Services 0 160 K svchost.exe 1720 Services 0 204 K MsMpEng.exe 1752 Services 0 64,556 K WUDFHost.exe 2148 Services 0 220 K svchost.exe 2188 Services 0 5,876 K svchost.exe 2636 Services 0 7,116 K dasHost.exe 2808 Services 0 5,740 K dllhost.exe 1056 Services 0 388 K DkService.exe 2708 Services 0 4,648 K FABS.exe 3580 Services 0 152 K daemonu.exe 3200 Services 0 5,584 K csrss.exe 3872 Glass 1 116 K winlogon.exe 5928 Glass 1 156 K LogonUI.exe 1772 Glass 1 512 K dwm.exe 4596 Glass 1 108 K csrss.exe 5968 Glass 4 128 K winlogon.exe 3364 Glass 4 156 K LogonUI.exe 6108 Glass 4 524 K dwm.exe 4764 Glass 4 136 K csrss.exe 1408 Glass 2 136 K winlogon.exe 7732 Glass 2 160 K LogonUI.exe 2036 Glass 2 524 K dwm.exe 6236 Glass 2 144 K PresentationFontCache.exe 9928 Services 0 332 K csrss.exe 4948 Glass 5 128 K winlogon.exe 3708 Glass 5 156 K LogonUI.exe 5992 Glass 5 528 K dwm.exe 8756 Glass 5 152 K csrss.exe 8068 Glass 8 136 K winlogon.exe 9500 Glass 8 164 K LogonUI.exe 8240 Glass 8 524 K dwm.exe 5576 Glass 8 156 K hamachi-2.exe 6936 Services 0 1,544 K csrss.exe 6644 Glass 6 140 K winlogon.exe 4000 Glass 6 168 K LogonUI.exe 2968 Glass 6 516 K dwm.exe 6932 Glass 6 148 K csrss.exe 2452 Glass 9 136 K winlogon.exe 6244 Glass 9 160 K LogonUI.exe 1996 Glass 9 520 K dwm.exe 384 Glass 9 148 K svchost.exe 2060 Services 0 176 K csrss.exe 268 Glass 7 140 K winlogon.exe 13088 Glass 7 172 K LogonUI.exe 4256 Glass 7 528 K dwm.exe 6700 Glass 7 156 K csrss.exe 3516 Glass 10 136 K winlogon.exe 3104 Glass 10 172 K csrss.exe 6820 Console 12 1,856 K winlogon.exe 5228 Console 12 184 K LogonUI.exe 12020 Glass 10 528 K dwm.exe 7280 Console 12 10,200 K dwm.exe 12236 Glass 10 176 K nvxdsync.exe 12648 Console 12 316 K nvvsvc.exe 892 Console 12 440 K taskhostex.exe 11880 Console 12 3,132 K explorer.exe 12224 Console 12 35,076 K LiveComm.exe 11624 Console 12 6,756 K RuntimeBroker.exe 5408 Console 12 8,244 K RAVCpl64.exe 11200 Console 12 332 K ZPSTray.exe 11100 Console 12 304 K Mini_Monitor.exe 11740 Console 12 4,532 K firefox.exe 88 Console 12 201,512 K plugin-container.exe 13120 Console 12 1,148 K FlashPlayerPlugin_11_5_50 11484 Console 12 612 K FlashPlayerPlugin_11_5_50 9276 Console 12 1,748 K Taskmgr.exe 7908 Console 12 24,588 K WmiPrvSE.exe 12568 Services 0 5,284 K cmd.exe 3020 Console 12 2,092 K conhost.exe 7352 Console 12 4,676 K tasklist.exe 9072 Console 12 5,516 K WmiPrvSE.exe 6384 Services 0 5,708 K C:\Users\Gigabyte>taskkill/PID 0409/F
