Deployment Method: Individual Install, Upgrade, & Uninstall
To install LiveKd, run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
To upgrade LiveKd, run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
To uninstall LiveKd, run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
Deployment Method:
This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.
1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url
(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)
2. Setup Your Environment
1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment
Please see the organizational deployment guide
2. Get the package into your environment
Option 1: Cached Package (Unreliable, Requires Internet - Same As Community)-
Open Source or Commercial:
- Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
- You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download
-
Open Source
-
Download the package:
Download - Follow manual internalization instructions
-
-
Package Internalizer (C4B)
-
Run: (additional options)
choco download livekd --internalize --version=5.4 --source=https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/
-
For package and dependencies run:
choco push --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'"
- Automate package internalization
-
Run: (additional options)
3. Copy Your Script
choco upgrade livekd -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'5.4'" [other options]
See options you can pass to upgrade.
See best practices for scripting.
Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.
If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:
choco upgrade livekd -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'5.4'"
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE
Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
Exit 0
}
Exit $exitCode

LiveKD allows you to run the Kd and Windbg Microsoft kernel debuggers, which are part of the Debugging Tools for Windows package, locally on a live system. Execute all the debugger commands that work on crash dump files to look deep inside the system. See the Debugging Tools for Windows documentation and our book for information on how to explore a system with the kernel debuggers.
While the latest versions of Windbg and Kd have a similar capability on Windows XP and Server 2003, LiveKD enables more functionality, such as viewing thread stacks with the !thread command, than Windbg and Kd's own live kernel debugging facility.
Command line usage
liveKd [[-w]|[-k <debugger>]|[-o filename]] [-vsym] [-m[flags] [[-mp process]|[pid]]][debugger options]
liveKd [[-w]|[-k <debugger>]|[-o filename]] -ml [debugger options]
liveKd [[-w]|[-k <debugger>]|[-o filename]] [[-hl]|[-hv <VM name> [[-p]|[-hvd]]]] [debugger options]
-hv Specifies the name or GUID of the Hyper-V VM to debug.
-hvd Includes hypervisor pages (Windows 8.1 and above only).
-hvl Lists the names and GUIDs of running Hyper-V VMs.
-k Specifies complete path and filename of debugger image to execute
-m Creates a mirror dump, which is a consistent view of kernel memory. Only kernel mode memory will be available, and this option may need significant amounts of available physical memory. A flags mask that specifies which regions to include may optionally be provided (drawn from the following table, default 0x18F8):
0001 - process private, 0002 - mapped file, 0004 - shared section, 0008 - page table pages, 0010 - paged pool, 0020 - non-paged pool, 0040 - system PTEs, 0080 - session pages, 0100 - metadata files, 0200 - AWE user pages, 0400 - driver pages, 0800 - kernel stacks, 1000 - WS metadata, 2000 - large pages
The default captures most kernel memory contents and is recommended. This option may be used with -o to save faster, consistent dumps. Mirror dumps require Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008 or above. Sysinternals RamMap provides a graphical summary of the distribution of the available memory regions that can be selected for inclusion.
-ml Generate live dump using native support (Windows 8.1 and above only).
-mp Specifies a single process whose user mode memory contents should be included in a mirror dump. Only effective with the -m option.
-o Saves a memory.dmp to disk instead of launching the debugger.
-p Pauses the target Hyper-V VM while LiveKd is active (recommended for use with -o).
-n Specifies the name or GUID of the Hyper-V VM to debug.
-hvl Lists the names and GUIDs of running Hyper-V VMs.
-vsym Displays verbose debugging information about symbol load operations.
-w Runs windbg instead of kd.

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).
Chocolatey Pro provides runtime protection from possible malware.
