DESCRIPTION
The Enable-WdacBidTrace cmdlet enables Built-in Diagnostics Tracing (BidTrace) for troubleshooting Windows Data
Access Components (Windows DAC).
For more information about data access tracing, see Data Access Tracing (Windows 8)
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh829624(VS.85).aspx) on the Microsoft Developer Network.
PARAMETERS
-Path
Specifies the full path of an application. This cmdlet enables BidTrace for the application that this
parameter specifies.
Required? true
Position? 1
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-ProcessId []
Specifies a process ID. This cmdlet enables BidTrace for the process that has the ID that this parameter
specifies.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Folder
Specifies a folder. This cmdlet enables BidTrace for all applications under the folder that this cmdlet
specifies.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-IncludeAllApplications
Indicates that this cmdlet applies to all applications. If you specify this parameter, the cmdlet enables
BidTrace for all applications.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Platform []
Specifies the platform architecture. This cmdlet enables BidTrace for the WDAC BidTrace settings that belong
to the architecture that this parameter specifies. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
-- 32-bit
-- 64-bit
-- All
The default value is 32-bit on a 32-bit process. The default value is 64-bit on a 64-bit process. If you run
this cmdlet in a remote CIM session, this parameter refers to the platform architecture on the remote computer.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-PassThru []
Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate
any output.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-CimSession []
Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such
as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local
computer.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-ThrottleLimit []
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this
parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShellr calculates an optimum throttle limit
for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies
only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Confirm []
Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value false
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-WhatIf []
Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs.
The cmdlet is not run.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value false
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,
ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,
OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable. For more information, see

INPUTS
OUTPUTS
Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#MSFT_WdacBidTrace[]
Example 1: Enable BidTrace for an application on a platform
PS C:\> Enable-WdacBidTrace -Path "C:\temp\abc.exe" -Platform "32-bit"
This command enables the BidTrace for the application C:\temp\abc.exe on the 32-bit platform.
Example 2: Enable BidTrace for application by using a Process ID
PS C:\> Enable-WdacBidTrace -Path "C:\temp\abc.exe" -ProcessId 1234 -Platform "32-bit"
This command enables the BidTrace for the application C:\temp\abc.exe on the 32-bit platform for a particular
instance of abc.exe. The enabled application has the Process ID 1234.
Example 3: Enable BidTrace for applications in a specified folder on the native platform
PS C:\> Enable-WdacBidTrace -Folder "C:\temp"
This command enables a BidTrace for all applications located in C:\temp on the native platform.
Example 4: Enable BidTrace for 64-bit applications
PS C:\> Enable-WdacBidTrace -IncludeAllApplications -Platform "64-bit"
This command enables the BidTrace for all 64-bit applications.
Example 5: Enable and disable BidTrace for an application
PS C:\> $BidSetting = Enable-WdacBidTrace -Path "C:\temp\abc.exe" -Platform "64-bit" -PassThru
PS C:\> Disable-WdacBidTrace -InputObject $BidSetting
The first command enables the BidTrace for the 64-bit application C:\temp\abc.exe, and then stores the result in
the $BidSetting variable. After you run the first command, you can use abc.exe.
The second command disables BidTrace for the application stored in $BidSetting.
