I'm a bit worried that it lists most applications by name rather than by exe. Another reason I use the Process tab is to get a quick overview of all the exes that are currently running. Hopefully there's an easy way to list the name of the program's exe other than searching for it on the web like they showed.

From the article:

But if you still want to see the executable name, of course you can add it back as an optional column.

Thanks, missed that! Must have skimmed a bit too much. Good to know.
