* Welcome to use WinTrace, WinTrace is a freeware which you can use it or distribute it to your friends.
INTRODUCTION :
WinTrace (WT.EXE) is a general purpose trace utility which allows you to trap any Windows APIs (DLL functions) under your finger-tips. WinTrace is a low-level debugging utility which requires users to know how windows API passes its arguments on the stack and how windows API gets its returned values from the registers. WinTrace is divided in two modes, CONSOLE mode & READY mode. In CONSOLE mode, WinTrace grabs the control of keyboard and mouse from Windows, only WinTrace commands can be entered in this mode. To release the control of keyboard and mouse to Windows, you need to type 'G' command to return to READY mode.
CONSOLE mode : Except WinTrace, all other Windows programs are frozen. Only WinTrace commands can be entered at this time.
READY mode : Re-activate Windows programs, and WinTrace waits for Windows API trace events.
The theory behind WinTrace is quite similar to DOS TSR programs, instead of intercepting DOS/BIOS interrupts, WinTrace intercepts any Windows APIs (or any DLL functions).
