Starting with windows xp, the tlist command was replaced by the tasklist command.

The old tlist command had the option \t, which permitted to query parent/child process relationship.

Does a similar option exist in tasklist?

Thank you

Answer 1

I think you want this:

tasklist /SVC

If this is not helpful then I recommend Process Explorer. It is a program which shows all parent and child processes.

Answer 2

Also you can tried

tasklist /M

It will give you result like that:

BESClientUI.exe               4296 ntdll.dll, wow64.dll, wow64win.dll,
                                   wow64cpu.dll
SynTPHelper.exe               2216 N/A
sihost.exe                    9340 ntdll.dll, KERNEL32.DLL, KERNELBASE.dll,
                                   msvcrt.dll, combase.dll, ucrtbase.dll,
                                   RPCRT4.dll, bcryptPrimitives.dll,
                                   sechost.dll, advapi32.dll,
                                   CoreMessaging.dll, ntmarta.dll,

Also you can filter it

tasklist /M /FI "xxx"

Where as xxx you can specyfi filter parameters

    MODULES         eq, ne                    DLL name

for example:

tasklist /M /FI "IMAGENAME eq explorer.exe"

Which give's you somethin similar:
