You could use a program called Process Monitor. This program allows you to do what you want.

Process Monitor is an advanced monitoring tool for Windows that shows real-time file system, Registry and process/thread activity. It combines the features of two legacy Sysinternals utilities, Filemon and Regmon, and adds an extensive list of enhancements including rich and non-destructive filtering, comprehensive event properties such session IDs and user names, reliable process information, full thread stacks with integrated symbol support for each operation, simultaneous logging to a file, and much more. Its uniquely powerful features will make Process Monitor a core utility in your system troubleshooting and malware hunting toolkit.

It also provides exactly what you want:

Process tree tool shows relationship of all processes referenced in a trace.

Use pslist64.exe -t from SysInternals.

Try Process Exporer from Sysinternals. It is like an advanced task manager, there is a tree view as well.
