how can i monitor files program activity ?

Hi

how can i monitor program activity?
for example files opened,writed,modified..

i know only process monitor but it's redundant , i mean it catpure all the files opened by the program many times
for example if the program opens the file x , in process monitor there is a long list of file x
maybe it's windows architecture

is there an alternative to process monitor?
and to capture only a program , in the filter should i have only the program included?

in short could you tell me how do you track a program activity?

thanks

 

what about process explorer?

Look at SystemExplorer with feature "History"

how can i do it?
i use process hacker , but i have process explorer too
how can i track a program ?
i mean all the files opened,mod,created and so on

thanks

 

i know
i tried to run a program
but can get detailed information

 

Why not just apply an include filter for the process you want to monitor when using Process Monitor?

in short it's the only tool?

i do , but it's a mess find for example the file opened
because it reports the same file opened many times

 

Very few tools are without alternatives: http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/probably-best-free-security-list-world.htm?page=0,14 (15.10)

Why don't you create a filter for "Operation" and use "CreateFile" or "WriteFile" (for file opening and writing)? ProcessMonitor is extremely configurable when it comes to filtering.

to monitor registry changes made by a particular program (exe file) i sometimes use RegFromApp.
