Using -config
<p>Every sample of using the "Logman -config my.config" with Windows 7 has been full failure.  However, I have been able to work out what really needs to be in the config file:</p>
<p>sample of "my.config" content<br />----------------------------------------------------------</p>
<p>[create]<br />counter<br /><br />[n]<br />windowsMonitor<br /><br />[v]<br />mmddhhmm<br /><br />[si]<br />00:00:30<br /><br />[f]<br />csv<br /><br />[c]<br />\Processor(_Total)\% Processor Time<br />----------------------------------------------------------<br /></p>
<p>etc. <br /><br /></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sample files show<br />[create]<br />counter windowsMonitor<br /><br /></p>
<p> </p>
<p>However, this does NOT work!<br />Also, leave off the '-' dash, unless you need to negate a parameter.</p>
