Process Monitor Warning

[ColTom2]

Hi:

I updated Sysinternals Process Monitor to Version 2.0 and now every time
that I open Process Monitor 2.0 I get the following warning:

"The version of Dbghelp.dll configures does not support the Microsoft Symbol
Server. Please download and install the Microsoft Tools for Windows to get a
version that does".

I have downloaded and installed the WinDbg, but I have no clue as to what
to do next. I also installed all the Symbols in the C\windows\symbols
folder.

Thanks for any help.

I found the work around below on Sysinternals Forum which resolved the
issue. You have to install the Debugging Tool for Windows (x86) to acquire
the needed file Dbghelp.dll (version 6.9.0003.113).

"Finally found a work around to this issue. I copied the Dbghelp.dll
(version 6.9.0003.113) of the latest debugging tools to the directory where
ProcMon is. Through the "Option > Configure Symbols" option, I selected the
new Dbghelp.dll in the ProcMon folder using the Browse function. And
magically, it worked. Thanks for telling me that I can actually use an
external Dbghelp.dll other than the one in WINDOWS\system32 through the
option."


I forgot to mention that I am running XP MCE(2005) SP3 with all updates
installed. Also I never had this problem with any of the prior Process
Monitor versions.


I did try to run and got the following saying Symbol file could not be
found.







Thanks
