While I really do appreciate having multiple choices when it comes to tooling I beg to differ when saying that windbg is archaic. As someone who is spending a lot of time with windbg, I think it's fair to say they really put some effort in it: TTD (time travel debugging), JS scriping, Linux core dump support, new type of queries and the data model, new commands, and an upcoming integrated MCP (functionalities \ function names visible in the data model). That being said, there's a lot of baggage for such an old software and there are definitely some pain points. But as said, I like to have a choice (I sometimes use x64dbg for example), so the more, the merrier! I'll definitely give yours a try. Good luck for the beta and the release!

Good points - maybe "arcane" would have been a better word to describe WinDbg - you can do just about anything, provided you know the right incantation. I hope you enjoy ForensicDbg!
