🧪 Pulse 1.0.0 — Open Beta (beta.2)

Adds the last of the per-process metrics. Feedback welcome via Issues.

Download

  • Pulse-Setup.exe — installer (per-user, no admin needed)
  • Pulse-portable-x64.zip — unzip and run Pulse.exe

Self-contained. Windows 10 (20H2+) / 11, 64-bit.

New in beta.2

  • Per-process GPU column — GPU utilization for each process (from the Windows GPU-Engine counters; works for any GPU).
  • Per-process Network column — send+receive throughput per process, via a kernel ETW session like Task Manager itself. This needs administrator rights, so it shows "—" until you run Pulse as admin (Settings → Restart as administrator); hover the column header for the hint.

About the SmartScreen warning

This build still isn't code-signed, so you may see "unknown publisher" — click More info → Run anyway. The full signing pipeline is now in the repo (installer/build-release.ps1, SIGNING.md); it just needs a code-signing certificate (Azure Trusted Signing is the cheapest route) to make installs prompt-free.

Everything else

Processes (CPU / memory / disk / network / GPU / threads / PID / status, filter, sort, column chooser, full right-click actions), Performance (CPU + per-core, GPU power/temp, disk, network), Startup apps, Services, run-as-admin, default-Task-Manager, custom colors, density, tray, and persisted settings.
