Releases: google/UIforETW
UIforETW with cumulative fixes
There were five versions of v1.58 UIforETW released because none of the changes justified an upgrade notification, but it's been a while so it's time for a v1.59, just to push out those previous changes, along with these ones:
ebe1063 2023-09-07 12:59:20 -0700 Use appropriate profile in etw_processes_longterm.bat
fd4d0f3 2023-07-28 09:08:25 -0700 Clean up input hook code
88afed6 2023-07-28 09:10:04 -0700 Make xperf output decoding more robust
The etwpackage*.zip file contains a 64-bit version of UIforETW.exe, statically linked so that it will run anywhere. No compilation required. It also includes 64-bit versions of the Windows Performance Toolkit (WPT) installers.
To use this release just download etwpackage*.zip, unzip it, then run bin\UIforETW.exe (signed). Windows Performance Toolkit (WPT) will be installed as needed. Symbols are available on this symbol server: https://randomascii-symbols.commondatastorage.googleapis.com/

UIforETW with space-removal fix
This release of UIforETW is a small update (I didn't change the version number) that stops removing space characters from the start/end of trace-name suffixes. Spaces are totally valid, especially leading spaces.
The full list of changes is:
36785a4 Make trimming of space characters optional

UIforETW with space-removal and extraneous file removal
This release of UIforETW is a small update (I didn't change the version number) that removes some accidentally shipped files from the .zip file, and strips white-space from edit controls. When pasting a provider name I hit tracing failures that turned out to be due to an invisible \n character at the end of the text that I pasted. This was accepted by the edit control even though it was in single-line mode. This version removes that footgun. I also removed some accidentally shipped files which should help resolve issue #164 (VirusTotal complaints). That said, VirusTotal seems to have lots of false positives and not much information about what they thing they're seeing, so a full resolution is probably not possible.
The full list of changes is:
c5c14ff Filter more files from releases
214c796 Trim leading/trailing whitespace from most edit controls
The etwpackage*.zip file contains a 64-bit version of UIforETW.exe, statically linked so that it will run anywhere. No compilation required. It also includes 64-bit versions of the Windows Performance Toolkit (WPT) installers.

UIforETW with improved finding of xperf
This release of UIforETW is a small update (I didn't change the version number) that improves how UIforETW searches for the Windows Performance Toolkit install, and xperf.exe. UIforETW needs to shell out to xperf.exe to do its work and it's never been clear how to properly do this. This should resolve issue #159
The full list of changes is:
28b0720 Clean up and improve install-directory locating

UIforETW with support for Chrome's "base" events
This release of UIforETW is a tiny update (I didn't change the version number) that just adds support for recording "base" events from Chrome. If you're not working on Chrome and recording Chrome's events in ETW traces then this release is unimportant.
The full list of changes is:
8f34adb Add option to record 'base' events from Chrome

UIforETW with fixed WPT searching
This release of UIforETW includes the latest version (22H2) of WPT (Windows Performance Toolkit), which supports PDBs larger than 4 GiB, and it includes fixes to find the WPT (xperf, wpa) install when it is not found in the SDK install directory. This happened starting with 22H2 when WPT is installed without the SDK.

UIforETW with Windows 11 WPA/WPT/xperf
