I find recent versions of some SysInternals tools to be buggy. I think the quality of SysInternals tools has decreased noticeably in recent years.– End Antisemitic HateCommented Jun 20 at 0:49

Sounds like a conflict with software running on your system and this particular piece of software– RamhoundCommented Jun 20 at 0:53

The most likely cause is the particular anti-malware suite on the server delaying startup. You can confirm that by disconnecting the server from LAN and WAN, stopping the real-time antivirus, and then starting Process Explorer. Of course, restart malware protection afterwards. Yes, this is a nuisance, and might only be worth the effort to test if the server were to be taken offline for another reason.– DrMoishe PippikCommented Jun 20 at 2:04

process explorer has been getting slower to load in recent years. a lot of it is just that in modern windows, real time process viewing is more strenuous job than it used to be, though I can't say I've ever seen it take longer than a minute to load.– Frank ThomasCommented Jun 20 at 3:17

Thanks everyone for your advice. I did try disabling the windows real time antivirus, but it didn't help. Does anyone know a trustworthy place where I could try downloading an older version of ProcExp or the Sysinternals suite? I tried searching but I'm not sure if the locations I found were trustworthy.– BenjaminSelbyCommented Jun 20 at 5:34

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
