How to locate fuslogvw.exe on my machine?

I'm looking for the assembly binding log viewer executable (fuslogvw.exe), but I can't seem to find it on my machine. It's there for sure because when I type fuslogvw in a Visual Studio command prompt the application opens.

The machine I'm working on has a clean Visual Studio 2008 installation, no previous versions were ever installed.

Does anyone know where to find it? I need the exe to be able to copy it to a server to so开发者_运维知识库lve a binding issue.

On my box, also with VS2008, it can be found at

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin\fuslogvw.exe

In Windows 7, and Windows 8.1, it's located under the directories that are here:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows{version}\bin{.NET Version Tools}

So for Windows 8.1 and .NET 4.5.1:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.1a\bin\NETFX 4.5.1 Tools\

My Computer has it in a different place under Tools for Visual Studio 2010

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools\x64\

Open the folder and run FUSLOGVW.exe as administrator then you can enable the log in settings.

Use the Visual Studio / development tools command prompt.

This tool is automatically installed with Visual Studio. To run the tool, use the Developer Command Prompt (or the Visual Studio Command Prompt in Windows 7) with administrator credentials. For more information, see Visual Studio Command Prompt.

At the command prompt, type the following:

fuslogvw

On my machine it's in the SDK's bin directory.

To help you out, here's a quick-n-dirty batch file nightmare that will search the path for a file you give it:

@if EXIST %1 echo .\%1
@for %%e in (%PATHEXT%) do @for %%i in (%1%%e) do @if EXIST %%i echo .\%%i
@if NOT "%~$PATH:1"=="" echo %~$PATH:1
@for %%e in (%PATHEXT%) do @for %%i in (%1%%e) do @if NOT "%%~$PATH:i"=="" echo %%~$PATH:i

Might be late to the party but maybe some of you might be interested in a modern alternative to FUSLOGVW.exe I put on GitHub: Fusion++

It's super easy to use: Just click "Record" to capture assembly logs. If you are done, click "Stop" again and Fusion++ will parse all the log files for you.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v10.0A\bin\NETFX [INSERT VERSION HERE] Tools

You can run this tool via Visual Studio Command Prompt (Make sure to run the command prompt as Administrator):
