This release of UIforETW is updated for the Windows 10 Creators Update. It packages the new 10.0.15063 version of the Windows Performance Toolkit, and has a few tweaks to work better with the new WPA and the new WIndows.

The list of important recent changes is:

8b3f9bd Updates for Windows 10 Creators Update
9bfe0ce Update thread names
93dc13e Fix crash in IdentifyChromeProcesses.py

The Creators Update changes include the new WPT, retiring the Chrome symbol stripping/downloading hack (finally!), and supporting the new thread naming API.

The etwpackage*.cab file contains an etwpackage*.zip file that contains 32-bit and 64-bit versions of UIforETW.exe, statically linked so that they will run anywhere. No compilation required. It also includes 64-bit versions of the Windows Performance Toolkit (WPT) installers.

To use this release just download etwpackage*.cab and extract the .zip file. Then unzip etwpackage*.zip and run bin\UIforETW. WPT 10 will be installed as needed. etwsymbols*.zip (with source indexing) can be downloaded if needed for debugging. Apologies for the extra step, but .cab files can be signed and .zip files can't. Check the signature of the .cab file if you want to be sure you're getting the real thing.
