About Downloading Symbols

Peter Strick edited this page Mar 30, 2022 · 1 revision

Microsoft quickly publishes symbols for Windows builds to its Symbol Server. The Microsoft Symbol Checker can be used to download all symbols for a build for Mach2 usage.

Example:

  1. Download and extract Windows build to X:\Build
  2. Drop sample script (download-symbols.cmd) into same folder
  3. Wait

Sample download-symbols.cmd:

dir /b /s . >listing.txt
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Debuggers\x64\symchk.exe" /it listing.txt /se SRV*https://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols /oc .\Symbols
