  1. There is a memory leak in my application. The memory consumption shoots up after a couple of days of running the application. I need to dump call stack information of each orphaned block address. How is it possible with WinDbg?

  2. I tried referring to document created by my colleague, but I’m confused about how to specify the symbol path and stuff like that. It didn’t work out. Where can I get a step-by-step document.

    You can use umdh.exe to capture and compare snapshots of the process before and after leak happens. This works best with Debug binaries – it will give you the callstacks of memory allocated between the 1st and the 2nd snapshot.
