About

AppControl is a free advanced Task Manager for Windows with full history. Scroll back through days of system activity to see exactly what spiked your CPU, filled RAM, maxed the GPU or disk, or overheated your PC, with CPU and GPU temperature tracking over time. Built-in privacy monitoring reveals which apps accessed your webcam, microphone, or location, plus hidden installs and background tasks. Go beyond End Task: permanently disable problem apps, block entire publishers with one click, and build custom rules that stay enforced. Real-time alerts flag new or unusual apps and privacy access the moment they happen. Every process gets a plain-language description, so you can skip the web search. An optional open-source MCP extension connects Claude, Cursor, or other AI tools so you can ask about your PC's activity in plain English, and a CLI is included for power users. Lightweight (20 MB), free, and built to replace Task Manager on every PC you manage.

About

What makes Core Temp unique is the way it works. It is capable of displaying a temperature of each individual core of every processor in your system!

Core Temp is easy to use, while also enabling a high level of customization and expandability. Core Temp provides a platform for plug-ins, which allows developers to add new features and extend its functionality. Core Temp makes it easy for you to monitor the temperature of any modern x86 based processor. The program supports processors from all three major manufacturers; Intel, AMD and VIA. Intel processors starting with the "Core" series all the way up to the newest Core i7, including all the derivatives.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Gives you a really good view of what’s actually going on with your PC, including processes, CPU/memory, network activity and startup stuff. I like that you can actually block things rather than just looking through logs afterwards. It also keeps everything local and doesn’t constantly nag you with notifications.

Cons

  • There’s quite a lot going on when you first open it, so it takes a little while to get familiar with where everything is and what all the options do.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Probably one of the better solutions. It's lightweight, clearly displays data, shows peak temps and I've never had any compatibility issues.

Cons

  • The company are now in bed with Goodgame Empire. They have an exceptionally bad reputation when it comes to business practices, and it makes me seriously doubt the intentions of Core Temp developer(s).
