WinRT Applications

WinRT applications are applications that use Windows Runtime framework. More specifically, these are Windows Store and Universal Windows Platform (UWP) applications.

Note that dotMemory is unable to profile a UWP application if it uses .NET native tool chain. To profile such an application, you should disable the Compile with .NET Native tool chain option in Visual Studio (via the menu Project | Properties... | Build) and rebuild the project.

In order to profile a WinRT application, you should specify the following parameter:

  • Packages
    The list of all WinRT applications installed in your system.
    Here you should choose the application you are going to profile.

If Advanced is selected, you can additionally specify the following parameters:

  • Use environment variables
    Enables you to run the profiled application with specific environment variables. You can specify any number of variables using the list below the option. Note that each variable must be specified on a new line.
