You can click on Submit Unknown Executables in the same sub-menu to upload and scan the image if its hash is not already available in VirusTotal’s database. Go to Options –> –> Check to submit hash of all the running executables to VirusTotal’s engine and fetch the results.

Also, Process Explorer now comes with option to automatically scan images too. This option comes handy when you have to quickly analyse whether the running processes are legitimate or not. To do this, go to Options –> Verify Image Signatures. You can verify Image Signatures automatically when Process Explorer starts. This is useful for a quick peak at system performance. So, running it at logon will start those tray icons automatically. Process Explorer also provides many tray icons (discussed later). It’s always good to have Process Explorer running in background. If you are running Process Explorer as administrator, you’ll see File menu has option of Run (which runs as administrator) and Run as Limited User (which, as name says, runs as limited user). But in File menu you will find option to run both as Administrator and Limited user. You can launch a normal Run dialog through Win key + R shortcut key. These options are covered in details below. Process Explorer comes with many options that can be used to configure Process Explorer according to our needs.
