Restarter: Automatically Restart Crashed Apps

Free & Open Source Software to Restarts Crashled Applications on Your Computer

What is Restarter?

Restarter is a utility program designed to improve computer stability and reliability by monitoring applications for crashes, hangs, or unresponsiveness. As a background process, Restarter keeps watch on running apps and services, and can automatically restart any that stop responding or functioning properly.

If an application freezes or ceases operation, Restarter will first attempt to close the troubled process gracefully. If this fails, more aggressive termination signals will be sent to kill the stalled app. Once closed, Restarter will immediately relaunch the application to return it to a normal working state.

By quickly detecting application failures and restarting the affected programs, Restarter aims to prevent the need for a full system reboot which would close all open apps and interrupt the user's workflow. Its automatic process monitoring and restart capabilities keep applications alive and stable for longer durations.

As an open source program, Restarter is free to download and use on Windows systems. It has a simple, no-frills interface to manage the apps being monitored and customize the restart triggering criteria. Light on system resources, Restarter runs smoothly in the background without disrupting system performance.
