Show HN: I built a post-mortem debugger for native Windows x64/x86 crashes

ForensicDbg is a modern post-mortem debugger, designed from the ground-up to let you quickly and easily track down and identify your hardest to catch bugs.

​

We are currently running a private Beta test. If you are interested in debugging and want to ensure ForensicDbg surpasses your needs, request an invite.
