ProcDump for Windows is a command-line Sysinternals utility designed to monitor applications and capture process dump files for troubleshooting. It is commonly used by administrators and developers to diagnose CPU spikes, crashes, hangs, and other application performance issues. The tool can automatically generate dumps when a process exceeds CPU, memory, or performance counter thresholds. ProcDump also supports monitoring for unhandled exceptions, hung windows, DLL activity, and process termination events. With multiple dump types available, users can choose between mini, full, triage, MiniPlus, custom, callback, and kernel dump options depending on their diagnostic needs. ProcDump can also be embedded into scripts or configured as a postmortem debugger for automated crash analysis.
