Pykd - not only python extension for WinDBG

Purpose

This project can help to automate debugging and crash dump analysis using Python. It allows one to take the best from both worlds: the expressiveness and convenience of Python with the power of WinDbg!

Why do I need this?

If you want to automate the debugger but dislike the WinDbg built-in script machine syntax it's time to try again using the handy and powerful Python language. Even if you don't want to create your own script, maybe some existing scripts will be of interest to you?

Getting started

• You should have installed python. Supported python: 2.7, 3.5 - 3.9
• Install pykd with command: 'pip install pykd'
• Use windbg extension (bootstrapper) to run pykd with windbg
