Setting debugger target architecture: .effmach

  • Artikel

Sometimes, you may find dumps with callstacks that point to the wow64 thunks with little else of value.  For example:

 0:000> k
 # Child-SP RetAddr Call Site
00 00000000`0063e958 00000000`6c8d210d wow64cpu!<redacted>+0xc

07 00000000`0063f1c0 00000000`00000000 ntdll!LdrInitializeThunk+0xe

When this is encountered, it means your debugger is interpreting the data streams with the wrong processor architecture.  Simply set it to the target architecture (x86), and you'll start to see the expected callstacks:
