ListWindows
CUTools
Description
Get all open windows on your system! ListWindows gives you a complete overview of all windows, including their titles, handles, positions, and status - perfect for window management and UI monitoring.
With filter options for visible/invisible windows, specific processes, or window classes, you keep track of your desktop - never search for hidden applications again!
Why This Tool Stands Out
- Complete Overview of all windows
- Filter Options for targeted search
- Instant Listing in real time
- Detailed Info per window
Perfect for:
System administrators, developers, QA testers, and power users who need to keep track of running applications. Ideal for task management, UI monitoring, and automation scripts.
Workflow support; time savings depend on the task
Instead of navigating through Task Manager or Alt-Tab manually, you instantly get a structured list of all windows with all relevant details.
