Where can I download WPF Performance Suite for Win

问题:

The WPF Performance Suite is described here:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa969767.aspx#installing_the_wpf_performance_suite

-> how can I install it on Windows 8?

(the Windows 7 SDK can't be installed and the Windows 8 SDK contains Performance tools such as GPUView but not the WPF profilers "Perforator" and "Visual Profiler".

I googled several hours for it but didn't find anything.

Ok, I have it running under Windows 8, but afaik only for framework 4.

Download the tools (link borrowed from Athari above)

Install and it test. Select visual profiler and attach to a process. If it doesn't appear to work, download this patch from MS.

After installing the patch I now have it working again. This is on Windows 8 pro running on a Dell XPS 17 i7 based machine.

it comes as a pack of Windows Performance Toolkit (WPT) v5 for Windows 8 http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/wptkv5/thread/090ed47a-f253-4c5a-8dc8-a7923e839815

Visual Studio 2015 comes with "Timeline", which by my estimation roughly provides the same features as Visual profiler. It can profile WPF on .net4+, including 4.5, 4.6.

It can be started by

To profile a WPF application in Visual Studio 2015 CTP 5, open the Performance and Diagnostics hub from the Debug -> Start Diagnostic Tools Without Debugging (ALT+F2) menu. Select the Application Timeline tool and click Start (You can also run the CPU Usage tool alongside the Application Timeline tool).

I managed to get everything downloaded and working under Windows 10 with a .NET 4.5 WPF app.

• Follow instructions from Microsoft at Where to Download WPF Performance Suite? (Perforator, Visual Profiler). You need to install both the app, and its timezone patch.
• You must run the WPF profile app before you run the target app.
• Try running the target app as Administrator. It needs elevated privileges, or else it will not appear in the Select Process dialog.
• If you cannot run the target app as Administrator, then you can still use Actions..Launch Process to launch it.
