Command-line Resource Monitor for Windows?

On Windows, there's a GUI "Task Manager", and there's also a great little command-line "tasklist.exe" which lets me see most of the same data but in text that's really easy to parse from a script.

Is there an analogous command-line tool for "Resource Monitor"? I'm looking for something that will list global CPU/disk/network/memory usage, and/or per-process usage.

I think you are looking for typeperf. It should work for:

• Windows Server 2003 - 2016


• Windows 10


• Windows 7


• Windows Vista


• Windows XP

An example:

typeperf "\Processor(_Total)\% Processor Time"

will log the processor time until you hit Ctrl-C. Adding -sc 5 will report 5
instances:

typeperf -sc 5 "\Processor(_Total)\% Processor Time"

Here is example for disk activity, total bytes per second:

typeperf -si 2 "\LogicalDisk(_Total)\Disk Bytes/sec"
