Microsoft Application Verifier
The Microsoft Download Manager solves these potential problems.It gives you the ability to download multiple files at one time and download large files quickly and reliably.It also allows you to suspend active downloads and resume downloads that have failed. Microsoft Download Manager is free and available for download now. Application Verifier is a runtime verification tool for native code that assists in finding subtle programming errors that can be difficult to identify with normal application testing. This version of Application Verifier is out-dated, new releases can be installed with Debugging Tools for Windows - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff551063(v=vs.85).aspx To install Application Verifier: 1. Select from the list below the appropriate platform. 2. Click the file name. 3. When prompted, do one of the following: • To start the installation immediately, click Open or Run this program from its current location. • To copy the download to your computer for installation at a later time, click Save or Save this program to disk. To run Application Verifier: 1. Upon completion of your installation, you will be provided an “Application Verifier” menu option off your “Programs” menu. You may use this to launch the tool, or by running “AppVerif.exe” directly. 2. Once running, select “Add Application” off the “File” menu, and select your application. 3. At this point, you may choose to “Exit” with and accept the default setting, or modify your settings to target specific tests. Please refer to the provided help for details on what checks may best serve your needs. This release includes fixes in the following areas: • Basics: New threadpool stop for inconsistent timer parameters. • Print: Infrastructure improvements for XPSDrv coverage. • Print: New verifier stop when a print driver alters the security context when returns to spooler\\core driver. • Print: New coverage for IPrintOemUIMXDC print driver interface. • Print: New fault injections features for the Print subsystem. • Print: Infrastructure improvements for XPSDrv coverage. • Print: Added checks to ensure all virtual memory pages for input DEVMODEs are more readable. • LUAPriv: Disable logging of information entries to reduce log file size. • Help documentation updates • Print: Improved descriptiveness of the print stops. Don't forget about our key additions/changes from previous releases: • Basics: Added support for RtlTimer and RtlWait. Added detection of SetProcessAffinity mask calls in the threadpool tests. Added two new stops within the memory checks (creating executable heap & allocating executable memory). Increased the size of the capture stack traces. • Debugger message: The informational message displayed when you select a set of tests that require running under a debugger previously had a bad link that was fixed. • Help documentation updates. • Print: Added runtime verification for Print Ticket driver and application APIs as well as the Print Filter Pipeline components. • Ability to script, for those advanced users, check out the SDK shipped in the package for more details. • Log location change. Logs will no longer be stored in Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Documents\\AppVerifierLogs & Documents and Settings\\All Users\\AppVerifierLogs. Instead, they will be placed in %USERPROFILE%\\AppVerifierLogs. Known Issues Help documentation does not have details regarding the LFHGuardPages property found in the Heaps tests. Scripting: 1. If you disable all of the checks in IAppVerifierImageChecks then the image is no longer under verification. You must then re-add the image to the images collection in IAppVerifierManager. So be careful when removing checks from the collection that you don’t inadvertently delete the last one. 2. IAppVerifierImageCheck::get_Properties and IAppVerifierImageCheck::get_Stops will fail with E_FAIL if the check is not enabled. If you are using these interfaces from languages that support the "FOREACH" construct you will need to check that the check is enabled before enumerating the collection using "FOREACH". Customers who previously installed Application Verifier via the Application Compatibility Toolkit v3 please read. Installing Application Verifier today will not overwrite your existing Application Compatibility install. You will have two instances of Application Verifier on your machine (2.5 and 3.x). You will be able to use each of these, but note that if you are running both simultaneously on the same application then the 3.x settings take precedence. That is unless you are using tests that are not yet found in the 3.x release. Setup install and uninstall with previous versions of your machine. If you install this release over 3.0.0026 you will see two desktop icons (both will launch the latest) and two listings in the Add/Remove programs (newest version will have 3.x next to it)
