Hello again, akm

Not when using Task Manager - but with Process Explorer:

The Process Explorer display consists of two sub-windows. The top window always shows a list of the currently active processes, including the names of their owning accounts, whereas the information displayed in the bottom window depends on the mode that Process Explorer is in: if it is in handle mode you'll see the handles that the process selected in the top window has opened; if Process Explorer is in DLL mode you'll see the DLLs and memory-mapped files that the process has loaded. Process Explorer also has a powerful search capability that will quickly show you which processes have particular handles opened or DLLs loaded.

You're welcome. I haven't explored "System Explorer 3.8.9" yet but after reading the below, I would advise you to take your time and investigate findings before acting:

The program could use an extensive Help manual, but instead relies on expert user knowledge.

Gave it a try... actually seems a little more intuitive (and maybe more comprehensive) than Process Explorer.
But, Im definitely not an 'expert user', so guess need to wait and see.
Until next time...
