🔐 License version • WhatsApp / Email / Sound alerts

Send alert when CPU/MEM usage is continuously High or Low and restored

CPU_Alert monitors CPU and Memory usage and sends alerts when usage stays consecutively higher (or lower) than your threshold for a period of time. It sends another alert when usage returns to normal—so you know it’s recovered. This license version supports WhatsApp, Email, and Sound alerts.

Features

  • Download free to test with full functions (no registration required). Trial is time-limited for alert sending; import license key to activate.
  • Get alert when CPU/MEM usage keeps consecutive High or Low than a pre-defined threshold for a period of time—and alert again when restored.
  • Noise-resistant logic: alert once only when status changes (normal ↔ consecutive High/Low). No repeated alerts while usage remains abnormal.
  • Email/WhatsApp alert sending: setup Local/Gmail/Yahoo/Free SMTP (Gmail/Yahoo use App Password) and configure WhatsApp to receive alerts.
  • Alert email includes TOP1 program name, usage and a snapshot of processes list sorted by usage.
  • “I am Alive” mail notification: periodic sending latest log to let you know program is up and running.
  • Optional logging: save machine CPU/MEM usage, TOP1 program and time to log file each time usage exceeds threshold (auto separated by date if enabled).
  • Optional kill list: define killable program names—program will be killed when usage reaches threshold if it is in the list.
  • Optional trigger: execute an external program when consecutive High/Low threshold number is reached.
  • Requires Administrator authority to run. Tested on Win10/Win11 and Windows Server 2012R2/2016/2019/2022 with usage data matching Windows Task Manager.
