I am wondering if it is possible to use VTune 2013 or VTune2015 using a Windows embedded operating system. I read on the release notes that "embedded editions not supported" but I would like to know if there is a way for example to collect data on a Windows embedded system and view results on standard windows system and/or to perform remote mode using Windows embedded target.

Thanks,

Giorgio

VTune 2015 effective Update 3 can be used on subset of Windows Embedded variants: Windows Embedded Standard, Windows Embedded Pro and Windows Embedded Industry.

Other variants like Windows Embedded Compact and Windows Embedded Handheld are not supported by VTune as they differ substantially from desktop Windows.

  • Where do you get this info? Because in the release note of the update 3 ( and 4) it is explicitly said that embedded editions are not supported – DOFHandler Jun 26 '15 at 07:10

    We in VTune team performed touch testing on the specified subset of embedded OS, and added several fixes in Update 3 to allow pre-defined analysis usage. To claim official support and update release notes - we need to explore more aspects and specific of Windows embeeded support. – Sun-scorpion Jul 03 '15 at 06:17
  • From Intel support: If your embedded system has no disk space restricted, you can extract VTune Amplifier XE package (e.g. "VTune_Amplifier_XE_2015_setup.exe --extract-only --silent --extract-folder C:\temp\VTune_Amplifier_XE_2015_unpacked") then install it (e.g. run "Amplifier_XE.msi" with Administrative privileges) on the target. vtune drivers might or might not work, user-mode sampling collection can work I guess. Note that your target system hasn't been tested and have no technical support for now, it is your risk to run this product on unsupported operation system. – DOFHandler Jul 03 '15 at 06:33
