In Windows 11, Programs And Services Receive Identification Numbers Called “Process IDs” (Pids) To Identify Each Process Running On The System And To Distinguish Between Different Instances Of The Same Program.<\/span><\/p>\n

With these simple steps, you can determine a program’s process ID.<\/p>\n

Checking an application or service’s process ID isn’t something everyone needs to know. However, checking system resources for a specific instance, or for debugging purposes when forcibly exiting a program, may be helpful.<\/p>\n

If you need to determine the process ID of a specific program or service, Windows 11 allows you to do so using Task Manager and Resource Monitor, and you can even use PowerShell and Command Prompt<\/a> commands.<\/p>\n

This training guide includes the necessary steps to determine the identification number of a running program in Windows 11.<\/p>\n

How to check process ID from\u00a0Task Manager\u00a0in Windows 11<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

To find the “Process ID” number of a program in Windows 11, follow these steps:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open the Start menu.<\/li>\n
  2. Locate Task Manager and click the top result to run the program.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Note: You can also use the shortcut keys “Ctrl + Shift + Esc” or right-click on the “Taskbar” and select “Task Manager” or right-click on the “Start” button and select “Task Manager”.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. In the left pane, click Details.<\/li>\n
    2. Verify the program’s process identification number in the “PID” column in Windows 11. \"How<\/li>\n
    3. In the left pane, click on Services.<\/li>\n
    4. Verify the program’s process identification number in the “PID” column. \"Verify<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      After completing the steps, Task Manager displays the process ID for each running process in Windows 11.<\/p>\n

      How to check process ID from\u00a0Resource Monitor\u00a0in Windows 11<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

      To determine the program process ID through Resource Monitor in Windows 11, follow the steps below:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Open the Start menu.<\/li>\n
      2. Locate Resource Monitor and click the top result to run it.<\/li>\n
      3. Click on the Overview tab.<\/li>\n
      4. Verify the process ID of the programs and services in the PID column.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        \"How<\/p>\n

        After completing the steps, the program displays the process ID in the “PID” column.<\/p>\n

        How to check process ID from\u00a0PowerShell\u00a0in Windows 11<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

        To find the process identification number of an application through PowerShell commands in Windows 11, follow these steps:<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Open the Start menu.<\/li>\n
        2. Search for PowerShell and click on the top result to open Terminal.<\/li>\n
        3. Type the following command to display a list of running processes and press Enter: Get-Process \"How<\/li>\n
        4. Type the following command to view information (including ID) about a process and press Enter:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Get-Process PROCESS-NAME* | Format-List *<\/p>\n

          \"Get-Process<\/p>\n

          In the command, replace “PROCESS-NAME” with the name of the process .exe.” “*” is a wildcard that matches part of the name without specifying the exact name of the process. This example shows the Notepad process ID and all available information about it:<\/p>\n

          Get-Process explorer* | Format-List *<\/p>\n

          \"Get-Process<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. To determine the ID and owner of the process, type the following command and press Enter:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Get-Process PROCESS-NAME* -IncludeUserName<\/p>\n

            In the command, make sure you replace PROCESS-NAME with the name of the process “.exe.” “*” is a wildcard that matches part of the name without specifying the exact name of the process. This example shows the Explorer processes:<\/p>\n

            Get-Process explorer* -IncludeUserName<\/p>\n

            After completing the steps, PowerShell<\/a> will print a list of services with their respective process IDs.<\/p>\n

            How to Check Process ID from\u00a0Command Prompt\u00a0in Windows 11<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

            To determine the application ID through Command Prompt commands in Windows 11, follow the steps below:<\/p>\n

              \n
            1. Open the Start menu.<\/li>\n
            2. Search for Command Prompt and click the top result to open the Command Prompt window.<\/li>\n
            3. Type the following command to view the list of process IDs and press Enter: tasklist \"How<\/li>\n
            4. Type the order to see a list of process IDs for Microsoft Store apps, and press Enter: tasklist \/apps \"Type<\/li>\n
            5. Type the following command to get the ID from the process name and press Enter:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              tasklist \/svc \/FI “ImageName eq PROCESS-NAME*<\/p>\n

              \"tasklist<\/p>\n

              In the command, replace “PROCESS-NAME” with the name of the process .exe.” “*” is a wildcard that matches part of the name without specifying the exact name of the process. This example shows the Explorer processes:<\/p>\n

              tasklist \/svc \/FI \u201cImageName eq explorer*\u201d<\/p>\n

              After completing the steps, Command Prompt will print the program information and the process ID.<\/p>\n
