SupermonX

Most applications which take you through a setup process make some changes to your computer in order to allow proper functionality of features. However, inconsistencies might be consequences of installation of different types of software products, which can affect the stability of the computer. As such, SupermonX comes with the means to help you monitor and verify changes to your system.

Little time is required to go through the setup process, letting you quickly take it for a spin to see what it’s all about. A pretty compact window shows up on launch, letting you choose the action to take first, and this is done through an intuitive drop-down menu. Each type of action comes with a corresponding set of options.

In order for everything to go as planned, you sooner or later need to create a snapshot of your system. Before this is done, it’s recommended to pay a visit to the options panel in order to modify general, reporting, and verification settings, which also include regions of the computer to put under the scope.

You might have to wait a little while until the snapshot is created. Sadly, there’s no progress indicator during this time, and it’s also a good idea to cease all other activities, to enable proper reading of registry entries, or even directory trees. You can choose to have a report opened right afterwards, and these can also be viewed at any moment through the built in explorer.

Apart from the snapshot creation mode, the application can also report changes, and verify them. This enables a proper checkup after long computer use time, especially if it starts moving slower than usual. Reports can be made readable for the application only, as well as saved under the XML format.

SupermonX does a good job at monitoring your computer, helping you understand why you encounter drops in performance. Although it can’t be set to automatically create snapshots at regular intervals, it doesn’t generally take much time to manually take one and compare it to others.
