AppNetworkCounter

There are numerous applications on your system that send and receive information over the Internet without your knowledge. These are background processes and services which keep everything running smoothly, but some of them send and receive even though they are not supposed to. AppNetworkCounter can tell you what applications are exchanging data and how much of it. This lightweight and straightforward piece of software can provide you with the information you need at a moment's notice, without asking for any user input. Anything on your computer that's sending and receiving information will appear on its list right away.

AppNetworkCounter is absolutely free, and you can use it on any modern Windows system. It comes as a single executable in a ZIP archive, which you only need to extract and run, without going through an installation process. The application doesn't have any special requirements, and it doesn't have a noticeable impact on your computer's performance.

You only need to run the application on your computer, and it will start listing applications the moment they send or receive any piece of data. Besides application names, you will also find numbers for sent and received bytes, packets, as well as IPv4 and IPv6 bytes. You can view all this information directly on the main user interface or on a properties window, which includes some extra details.

AppNetworkCounter lets you copy all the information about single applications to the clipboard, and it only takes a single click. Additionally, you can generate a report, with all the applications and every piece of gathered information, and store it in HTML format.
