In this video, we take a practical dive into using Process Monitor (ProcMon) to diagnose application failures caused by missing dependencies. You'll learn how to configure a small set of powerful filters that isolate CreateFile and Load Image operations, helping you quickly identify missing or misconfigured DLLs during application startup. We walk through two real-world examples where dependency issues prevent applications from launching — and show how ProcMon can uncover exactly what's going wrong. We'll also explore important features of ProcMon that help with analysis and system resource management: • Ring Buffer: Reduce disk space usage by enabling circular logging • Auto-Scroll: Streamline log review during real-time monitoring • Architecture Detection: Learn how to spot 32-bit vs. 64-bit applications based on the system DLLs they load Finally, we introduce the open-source tool Dependencies (by lucasg on GitHub), a fast, visual alternative for static DLL analysis. We’ll demonstrate how this utility can instantly flag missing modules, making it a great complement to ProcMon for dependency troubleshooting. Whether you're supporting legacy apps or deploying modern ones, this video arms you with practical techniques to resolve "DLL Hell" and dependency-related crashes using real tools and real scenarios.
