# Tasklist

In computing, tasklist is a command available in Microsoft Windows and in the AROS shell.

It is equivalent to the ps command in Unix and Unix-like operating systems and can also be compared with the Windows task manager (taskmgr).

Windows NT 4.0, the Windows 98 Resource Kit, the Windows 2000 Support Tools, and ReactOS include the similar tlist command. Additionally, Microsoft provides the similar PsList command as part of Windows Sysinternals.
