I really like him for his contribution towards creating the Sysinternals set of utilities. I'm surprised that Windows doesn't include them by default nowadays.

- rnnr 12y agoIt's about client support. People will break their systems or call MS support for infos about what these tools do etc. Plus they don't concern a lot of people, and proper integration of them would undermine genreal user experience.
- jameshart 12y agoThe sysinternals tools are always available on a webdav-enabled share on live.sysinternals.com. Just run pushd \\live.sysinternals.com from a command prompt, and then run any of the sysinternals tools without any kind of installation - or, I guess, security or validation of the executable. YMMV.
- EvanAnderson 12y agoValidation is provided by Authenticode signatures embedded in the EXEs themselves.
- yuhong 12y agoWhat is interesting is that the kernel mode drivers buried inside procexp is still signed using sysinternals not MS certificates, sometimes with no timestamp!
- voltagex_ 12y agoI didn't know pushd worked like that in Windows. Thanks!
