创建 Windows 10 没有 ecmangen.exe 的自定义日志？

Question

I'm trying to forward events in Windows 10, I found a great github repo that seems to have all the subscription XML stuff in it that I need, but when I go to install the channels (read, logs) so that the subscriptions receive everything, it doesn't work because the custom channels aren't there...the github repo contains a dll that supposively contains the custom channels and a manifest file (.man) you can use to create it yourself (seems to have alot of XML in it).

I didn't really trust a .dll I download from a github repo in my environment, so I decided that since they tell you how to build the .dll . The github repo references a technet blog post , that tells you how to build the .dll , but it's a bit dated being from 2016 and all.

I installed the Windows 10 SDK to try this out, but it doesn't include the file they told me to run to build the .dll from the manifest, mainly C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\bin\x64\ecmangen.exe

I read in an unresolved unanswered post that the executable was removed in from the Windows 10 SDK starting with version 10.0.16299.15, and that the op decided to just use an older version.

Was this tool replaced with something else? I don't really want to use a DLL I found in a github repo.

ecmangen.exe removal from the SDK: Ecmangen.exe will no longer ship with the Windows SDK. Developers who rely on ecmangen for event manifest creation are advised to install the Windows Creators Edition of the SDK to obtain the file. Developers may also use notepad or other XML editor of choice for manifest creation. A schema file is available on MSDN to aid in manifest creation, for tools that support it.

Refer to " Windows 10 SDK Preview Build 16267 and Mobile Emulator Build 15240 Released ".

Refer to here for Windows Creators Edition of the SDK .

You can find ecmangen.exe at the following path:
