Free beta live now!

A faster, cleaner task manager replacement for Windows with a custom modern interface, powerful monitoring, and performance-first engineering built entirely from scratch.

Process table with grouped apps, background processes, live totals, and compact resource meters.

Built for the people who keep Task Manager open all day: developers, system tuners, support engineers, and anyone who needs a sharper live view into what Windows is doing.

UI in motion

Search and filter quickly

Find the rows that matter. To search, simply start typing.

Make it yours

Customize the views to your liking, whether it's the columns, the layout or the theme.

Advanced features

Built for power users.

Deep inspection, quick actions, and powerful tools that go beyond what the built-in task manager offers. View process modules and tokens, dump processes, manage services and startup items, and much more.

Performance first

A custom renderer and UI framework for a tool that should never feel heavy.

TaskSlinger is not an embedded web view or a React Native application. The interface is drawn by a custom Direct3D renderer, the controls are built for dense system telemetry, and the UI feels responsive at all times.

TaskSlinger performance tab with CPU logical processor graphs, memory, GPU, disk, and network metrics.

There when you need it

Blink and you'll miss it.

When something goes wrong you want your tools up immediately. TaskSlinger launches in 150 milliseconds and is fully rendered and ready to go from the first frame - multiple times faster than some alternatives.

Respects your privacy

No telemetry. No phoning home.

TaskSlinger sends no telemetry, analytics, or usage data anywhere.

No strings attached
