Description

AppControl is a comprehensive and free Task Manager designed for Windows, offering a complete history of system activities. Users can review days of performance data to pinpoint the causes of high CPU usage, excessive RAM consumption, GPU strain, disk overload, or overheating issues, while also tracking CPU and GPU temperatures over time. Its integrated privacy features monitor which applications have accessed your webcam, microphone, or location, revealing hidden installations and background processes. Unlike the basic End Task function, AppControl allows you to permanently disable troublesome applications, block entire publishers with a single click, and create custom rules that remain in effect. Real-time notifications alert you to any new or suspicious applications and privacy access as they occur. Each running process is accompanied by an easy-to-understand description, eliminating the need for web searches for clarification. Additionally, an optional open-source MCP extension enables integration with AI tools like Claude or Cursor, allowing users to inquire about their PC's activities in simple language, while a command-line interface caters to advanced users. With a lightweight design of just 20 MB, this tool is not only free but also aims to serve as a superior replacement for the standard Task Manager on all managed PCs. Its user-friendly features and powerful capabilities make it an essential tool for anyone looking to optimize their system performance and ensure their privacy.

Description

Mountain Theory is the antivirus for AI: every action an AI agent is about to take is checked against your rules before it runs. Mountain Theory controls what autonomous AI agents can do. Every action an agent is about to take is checked against your rules before it runs, and comes back ALLOW, HOLD or BLOCK. An agent that works around a block is stopped on the workaround. An agent that drifts off its task is caught. New bad behavior is stopped the day it appears, with no new rule written. Personal data is kept from leaving your environment, and instructions hidden in emails and documents are blocked. Rules are plain English, so changing one takes no code. Every decision is logged for your auditor. It works with any AI you already use, in your environment or the cloud. Our recorded tests are published with the misses included.
