The Windows Event Tracing framework (ETW) can be used to log a lot of information about the system internals. The tracefmt.exe tool that comes with Windows SDK can be used to convert the .etl log files into text.
However, it requires .tmf message format files to process the messages. Otherwise the data fill just appear as unknowns:
Unknown( 25): GUID=72e5b5cd-5b46-3568-7f3a-3eb074bedc0f (No Format Information found).
How can I download the needed .tmf files?
