Introduction

A question that I often get asked is "Do you know of a utility that will show me which DLLs are loaded on Windows 9x or NT?". The answer I gave up until recently was "no", until I discovered a tool in the Windows NT Resource Kit called tlist that does show this information. I decided to write a free-ware version, ListDLLs. Unlike tlist, however, ListDLLs is able to show you the full path names of loaded modules - not just their base names. In addition, ListDLLs will flag loaded DLLs that have different version numbers than their corresponding on-disk files (which occurs when the file is updated after a program loads the DLL), and can tell you which DLLs were relocated because they are not loaded at their base address.

You can also get Process Explorer, a GUI-based version of this program, here at Sysinternals.

Installation

Just copy ListDLLs onto your executable path, and type "listdlls".

ListDLLs works on Windows 9x, NT 3.51, NT 4.0, and Win2K.
