ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.1. PMVKProc - General Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The PMVKProc utility is an universal system information tool for listing
informations which are more software dependent (like then number of running
processes or the loaded file system for a drive). The current information you
get is:
General informations
Process informations
Drive informations
Profile (INI) informations
The informations are listed in differend windows for every information group.
The general informations embrace things like the minimum and maximum time
slice or the maximum number of threads. All informations about running
processes and by processes loaded dynamic loadable libraries (DLLs) are shown
in the process information. It is also possible to kill running processes in
the process information window. Informations about the drives like loaded file
system or allocated or free clusters are embraced in the drive informations.
For looking in profile files (INI-files) use the profile information. There it
is possible to examine and modify existing profiles.
The PMVKPROC utility is a fully functional shareware version. After a period
of 30 days the program will disable all information windows. With registering
the program you get an lisence number to open all functions again. For
register see How to register
For informations how to work with the program see Work with PMVKProc. There
are also some technical information about the system calls which are used by
the program (see Technical informations ).
For suggestions and if you find an error in the program you can send me a
short message.

After a test period of 31 days all functions of the program PMVKProc will be
inactive. Then you need a licence key to activate the program functions. The
licence key costs US $25 and will work for all 2.X versions of PMVKProc, which
is what your registration entitles you to.
To obtain a licence number there are alternative methods. For all Germans with
