  1. Windows Performance Toolkit. How to run xbootmgr with time limitations


    Trying to troubleshoot a reboot that never completes and am running the following command from WPT
    xbootmgr -trace shutdown -traceFlags BASE+DIAG+LATENCY -noPrepReboot


    The etl file is generated but since the reboot never completes it comes out corrupted at least xperf is unable to open it.


    Can I run the above command with timeout settings? Basically something like

    xbootmgr -trace shutdown -traceFlags BASE+DIAG+LATENCY -noPrepReboot -timeout 30s
    or something similar.

    :)

    Can I run xbootmgr to speed up boot times on an SSD?

    It is possible to tune up the Windows boot time by using the xbootmgr tool from the Windows Performance Toolkit, as described in this related question of myself: Should I logon to Windows when using xbootmgr to speed up boot times?. The command to use is the following:

    However, the author of the article I'm referring to advises:

    Now, I'm a little confused whether that's a warning or simply an advice to keep people from wasting time. Supposing I do perform this command on an SSD based computer, would it be detrimental (cause damage to the drive, make the boot time longer, or any other negative impact)?

    Update: I did run the process on my home computer, which has an SSD as the main drive. It finished much faster than normally would. At the end, the boot time improved absolutely nothing. So now I have empirical evidence it is a waste of time.

  3. How to use Windows Performance Toolkit to analyze slow startups

    Hello,

    I just installed the Microsoft Performance Toolkit for Windows 10 because I have a very slow startup and I wish to analyze it to understand which service/app/process is responsible for that. However I ma not
    sure how to use it. My understand is that I have to start a trace by WPR, reboot, stop the trace, and use the analysis tool (WPA) to get trace data in a graph format.

    Can anybody, please, publish step-by-step instructions to do that? I tried to use the Event Manager to troubleshoot the startup but it is not easy to understand if an error originated other errors or is originated
    by another error. Not all errors have to be fixed. Sometimes, fixing an error, remove all the errors it originated. So I would like to have a look at startup to understand if some process is responsible for time delays.

    Thank you in advance.

    I didn't find the right solution from the internet.

    Windows Performance Toolkit. How to run xbootmgr with time limitations

    Very slow boot-up time (over three minutes)


    Make sure you are running the command under "%programfiles(x86)%\Windows Kits\10\Windows Performance Toolkit" path.

    If it doesn't work try recording the trace using the graphical version of the tool. Here is the steps:


    1. Download and Install windows Performance Toolkit https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/win...ed/adk-install . Choose the package corresponding to your Windows version.
    2. When running the setup select only Windows Performance Toolkit.
    3. Record a trace using Windows Performance Recorder using these options:https://justpaste.it/1g4sx
    4. Compress the resulting file.
