Viewing Private Queues

Viewing private queues places an additional load on the network so they are only displayed when you right-click on a computer and then click Show Private Queues.

When you update the MSMQ Explorer display by pressing the F5 key, private queues are no longer displayed. However, requests to view the contents of additional private queues do not affect the private queues already displayed.

To view private queues for more than one computer within the same site, select the site that contains the computers, select multiple computers in the right pane of MSMQ Explorer, right-click one of the selected computers, and click Show Private Queues. To select a contiguous block of computers, hold down the SHIFT key and click the computers. To select non-contiguous computers, hold down the CTRL key and click the computers.

Note Viewing the private queues of many computers generates significant network traffic in large enterprises. View the private queues of all computers only when necessary, preferably when the network load is low.
