Getting windbg without the whole WDK?

问题:

Does anyone know how to get ahold of windbg without having to download the entire 620MB WDK ISO?

All I can find on the net to download the debugger is this link, which says you have to get the whole WDK: http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/debugging/default.mspx.

回答1:

Actually, Microsoft has now made the Debugging Tools downloadable separately from the SDK. Look for the section "Standalone Debugging Tools for Windows (WinDbg)" about mid-page:

• for Windows 8.1

• for Windows 10

回答2:

Officially, you can't. But someone's been extracting them for your convenience and hosting them.

Note: You can get the older releases on the official site, but the latest ones are part of the WDK.

回答3:

If you run winsdk_web.exe from the following link, you can selectively install windbg or extract windbg installer msi.

The standalone MSI file of windbg can be downloaded from here. The version is 6.12.0002.633 (x86). http://download.microsoft.com/download/A/6/A/A6AC035D-DA3F-4F0C-ADA4-37C8E5D34E3D/setup/WinSDKDebuggingTools/dbg_x86.msi

If you're on Windows 7 x64, the solution provided by Sukesh doesn't work.

I managed to install the debugging tools by downloading the Windows SDK installer for Windows 8 (here), and then choosing "Debugging Tools for Windows" in the installer:

Has all the individual msi files

回答7:

Try the MSDN archive link at http://archive.msdn.microsoft.com/debugtoolswindows/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=4912. It has the WinDbg MSI for both 32- and 64-bit (Version 6.12.2.633).

I found both, x64 and x86 version 6.12.0002.633 here:

The saga continues with the Windows 10 version. I had to install Win Debug Tools on clean Windows 10 OS with Visual Studio 2015.

To make a long story short, just follow the instructions in the link provided by David Black. After downloading the files, instead of running the SDK installer, browse to the installers directory and execute the msi files directly.

I wonder how many man hours have been lost through the last decade because of MS sloppiness in regards to WDK/SDK installation?

You can also get it from Chocolatey:

回答11:

For Windows 7 x86 you can also download the ISO: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=8442

And run \Setup\WinSDKDebuggingTools\dbg_x86.msi

WinDbg.exe will then be installed (default location) to: C:\Program Files (x86)\Debugging Tools for Windows (x86)

回答12:

This Microsoft link allows you to select the SDK. When you run the install and only select Windows debugging tools it will only download 288mb and install the tool as stand alone.
