Create or Load a Profiler Project

(Professional only)

A profiler project is used to define how you start profiling a process and the settings to use when profiling. It also keeps track of session files related to the project, allowing you to compare snapshots between different sessions.  For more information about profiler projects, see Profiler Projects.

1.   Select the New Profiler Project command from the File menu or the Profiler->Project menu if running under Visual Studio 2005.

2.   The “New Profiler Project” wizard appears.

3.   Follow the wizard to define the settings for the project.

4.   Click Finish to create the project.

To load a previously saved project, use the Open->Profiler Project under the File menu (or Load Profiler Project under the Profiler->Project menu in Visual Studio 2005).

A newly created or loaded project can be accessed using the Profiler Projects Explorer window. If it is not visible, the Profiler Projects Explorer window can be shown using the Profiler Projects Explorer command under the View menu (or the View->Other Windows menu in Visual Studio 2005).
