Is there a way to determine which application is listening on a certain port? How do I see if a particular port is in use on a windows PC? In this tutorial we’ll show you how to find out which process is listening on a given port in Windows 10, by using Command Prompt or PowerShell.<\/p>\n

Part 1: Find the ID of the Process Using a Given Port<\/strong><\/p>\n

To get started, open the elevated Command Prompt<\/a> and run the following command:
\nnetstat -aon<\/code><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It will display a list of TCP and UDP ports currently listening on your computer. In our case, the TCP port 3389 is used by a process whose process ID (PID) is 1272.<\/p>\n

You can also use PowerShell<\/a> to find out which process is listening on the TCP port 3389. Just enter this command:
\nGet-Process -Id (Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort Your_Port_Number).OwningProcess<\/code><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For UDP port, use this command instead:
\nGet-Process -Id (Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort Your_Port_Number).OwningProcess<\/code><\/p>\n

Part 2: Get Process Name by its ID<\/strong><\/p>\n

In order to find the process name by its process ID, open Task Manager<\/a> and go to the Processes<\/strong> tab. Sort the list of process by clicking the column header that is labeled “PID<\/strong>“. In our case, the process associated with the PID 1272 is Remote Desktop Services.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If you do not see a PID column, right-click the header of any column and select the PID<\/strong> option.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n

That’s how you can find out which process is listening on a given port in Windows 10, by using Command Prompt or PowerShell. If you would rather use a third-party software to check ports in use, TCPView<\/a> should be your good choice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
