Microsoft has ported the popular Sysinternals Procmon utility to Linux so that users can monitor running processes' activity.

Procmon is a Windows utility that monitors the system calls, Registry access, and file activity for processes running in the operating system.
This week Microsoft has released a Linux version of the popular Procmon utility that Linux users can monitor running processes, as shown in the demo below.

Once Procmon is compiled, it will be installed to /usr/bin/procmon.
Unfortunately, Procmon cannot be compiled under WSL due to the lack of Kernel event tracing.

For more information on how to use Procmon in Linux, you can see its GitHub page.
