I thought I had two instances of the installer running at once by accident but no... although the EULA does come up twice for some reason (and I already have .NET 3.5 installed). Something wrong with the package, I couldn't install it.
So there must be a visual studio extension that calls this function after the installation of visual studio 2010 diagnostic tool(I don't think visual studio would call this function in a XP box).
I decided to use filemon to track the file(or extension)loaded by vs2010. After the err message box showed, the last file in filemon is: C:\WINDOWS\system32\Microsoft.Internal.Performance.CodeMarkers.dll So, I renamed it. The err message box didn't show again!
I don't know what this dll does! Could anyone give me a hint ? Is it OK?
Same as everyone else, install failed. Microsoft don't seem at all bothered by this do they?
In case it helps anyone, you can get this (or something similar, not exactly sure) as part of the Windows 7 SDK. If you don't want the full SDK, you can just get the performance toolkit.
See http://www.autoitconsulting.com/site/performance/windows-performance-toolkit-installation/ for more information.
Btw, could you please update it to the newest WinDbg and WPT (4.8) Version?
@all XP users.
XP simply doesn't support the required ETW functions. ETW was added first in Windows 2000 and only some functions where added in XP. The major improvement was done with Vista. The toolkit can't use non existing functions, so don't cry that it doesn't work. XP is simply to old and outdated. Use a modern OS (NT6.x - Vista or 7), not such a dinosaur Windows.
I just tried to install this tool on a Windows 7 64-bit VS2010 SP1Rel machine and I get an error saying that "C:\Users\..\PerformanceDiagnostics.exe is not a valid Win32 application."
ETW tracing must be supported on XP,Many members having issues with this tool when it's installed on Win Xp,if vs2010 can work on XP so this tool must work without issues as well
Another XP user that failed to read the reviews. XP users should not install this. There is no un-do for me as of yet -- my environment prohibits System Restore, and re-installing SP3 did not restore my corrupted advapi32.dll file.
I had the same issue like Scott Wylie with this tool. I installed it before having read that it isn't usable on XP. After deinstalling, i still got the entry point error and was still not able to debug my (C++) projects because of an NtClose error right at the start of a debug session. I only got rid of it via a reset to a system restore point.
Three people on our team installed it, and they are all getting 'The procedure entry point EventUnregister could not be located in the dynamic link library ADVAPI32.dll
We are all using VS 2010 Pro or Ultimate and it is WinXP SP3. We have lots of problems with VS and we can't use this tool to help track down the issues due to this problem.
Can you please fix it as soon as possible? And no we can't update to Win7.
