Any way to open a captured session file?

Sup

I did a trace in a remote machine, copy the saved file (.pmx) but i cannot open it on the app... Already tried perfview and others but seems the file is not compatible... and i dont have enough c++ knowledge to add this functionality... Any alternative?

Thanks

I haven't added that functionality I don't know what a .pmx file is... for ETW it should be ETL. ETL files should be openable at least with WPA (Windows Performance Analyzer).

Hey bud, thanks for the reply. PMX is the format that ProcMonXv2 offers to save the captured session. PmxFileFormat

Thanks!

right... it's been a while. This is a private format, so will not work anywhere else. I think it's text... open in Notepad I need to get back to this to look closer.

OK, not a text file :) There is a CSV option in Save... Anyway, you can open pmx file in a compound file viewer (like SSView)

I tried to save (.csv format), but "failed to save data".

@GKSONG this is why:

https://github.com/zodiacon/ProcMonXv2/blob/e5486fb473fcce8a1cc387b06db41bb17b12488a/ProcMonX/CSVEventDataSerializer.cpp#L11-L13

the CSV serializer is totally unimplemented, even if it "is an option"
