Options
A number of settings in the Options menu modify Process Monitor's behavior.
Always on Top
Selecting this option causes the Process Monitor window to remain on top of other windows.
Font
This option opens a font selection dialog where you can chose the font Process Monitor uses for its display.
Highlight Colors
Chose this entry to open a dialog to pick the text and background colors Process Monitor uses for entries that match the configured highlight filters.
Configure Symbols
Process Monitor can use symbol information, if available, to show functions referenced on event stacks. You can find information on configuring symbols on the Microsoft Debugging Tools for Windows web page.
History Depth
Process Monitor watches committed memory usage and turns itself off when virtual memory runs low, but the History Depth dialog let's you limit the number of entries it keeps so that you can leave Process Monitor running for long periods and ensure that it always keeps the most recent events.
Profiling Events
Use this menu entry to open the thread profiling configuration dialog, where you enable thread profiling and the rate at which thread profiling events generate. When thread profiling is enabled, Process Monitor captures thread stack traces and CPU utilization that you can use to identify the source of CPU-related performance issues.
Enable Boot Logging
Use this option to configure Process Monitor boot logging.
