Microsoft released a new version of the Sysinternals Suite on Wednesday. This package is a collection of useful tools for managing systems and obtaining comprehensive information about the computer. In this way, all kinds of problems can be detected and solved. The individual tools are being developed by Mark Russinovich and Bryce Cogswell, initially for Sysinternals and now for Microsoft. Some examples are Process Explorer, Bginfo, contig and disk mon. In total it is a collection of 65 different tools. Since the previous entry in the Meuktracker, the following components in the Suite have been updated:

Process Monitor v2.9:
This update to Process Monitor adds translations for more error codes, the ability to disable individual filter entries, and a debugging API so that developers can insert debug output into the Process Monitor event stream (John Robbins has implemented helper classes for generating process monitor debug output from native and managed applications).

Process Explorer v12.02:
This update fixes a bug in the x86 Windows Vista driver that could cause a crash.

Test Limit v5.02:
This fixes a bug related to thread stack reservations.

Process Explorer v12.01:
This update fixes a bug that prevented DEP status being shown on Windows XP and the threads page of the process properties dialog from showing service names on Windows Vista.
