Functions

EmptyWorkingSet Removes as many pages as possible from the working set of the specified process.
EnumDeviceDrivers Retrieves the load address for each device driver in the system.
EnumPageFilesA Calls the callback routine for each installed pagefile in the system. (ANSI)
EnumPageFilesW Calls the callback routine for each installed pagefile in the system. (Unicode)
EnumProcesses Retrieves the process identifier for each process object in the system.
EnumProcessModules Retrieves a handle for each module in the specified process.
EnumProcessModulesEx Retrieves a handle for each module in the specified process that meets the specified filter criteria.
GetDeviceDriverBaseNameA Retrieves the base name of the specified device driver. (ANSI)

GetModuleFileNameExW Retrieves the fully qualified path for the file containing the specified module. (Unicode)
GetModuleInformation Retrieves information about the specified module in the MODULEINFO structure.
GetPerformanceInfo Retrieves the performance values contained in the PERFORMANCE_INFORMATION structure.
GetProcessImageFileNameA Retrieves the name of the executable file for the specified process. (ANSI)
GetProcessImageFileNameW Retrieves the name of the executable file for the specified process. (Unicode)
GetProcessMemoryInfo Retrieves information about the memory usage of the specified process.
GetWsChanges Retrieves information about the pages that have been added to the working set of the specified process since the last time this function or the InitializeProcessForWsWatch function was called.
GetWsChangesEx Retrieves extended information about the pages that have been added to the working set of the specified process since the last time this function or the InitializeProcessForWsWatch function was called.
InitializeProcessForWsWatch Initiates monitoring of the working set of the specified process.
QueryWorkingSet Retrieves information about the pages currently added to the working set of the specified process.
QueryWorkingSetEx Retrieves extended information about the pages at specific virtual addresses in the address space of the specified process.
