PsTools : Sigcheck reports wrong file version

Author: Dax1792
Subject: Sigcheck reports wrong file version
Posted: 15 March 2013 at 9:15am

Just some theories:
 
The version information is stored in binary and string form. Sigcheck uses the strings.
 
The API has functions which can specify whether the version information is taken from the mui file or the executable.
The hotfixes seem to update ntfs.sys but not ntfs.sys.mui .
 
This seems to happen with catalog signed files.
 
Whichever way Mark is using to get the version information, it looks like Powershell uses the same.

Interesting behavior:

Run SigCheck on ntfs.sys in %SystemRoot%\System32\Drivers and it gets the .mui file.

Copy the ntfs.sys file to some other location, and SigCheck runs against the .sys file.

Possible problems:
  OS locked file;
  OS SysNative like redirection.

Thanks for the responses, everyone. I confirmed that copying the file to a different location and running sigcheck on it provided the correct version as rtclick>properties. This also hints at why the filever.exe doesn't work correctly on this file.

Posted: 16 March 2013 at 12:59am

Hey, I'm using the source posted by wj32, and the problem is that I am unable to retrieve a full name for this handle.  Looking in Process Explorer, the handle is named, "HKU\__MAT! SANDBOX\HandleEnumerat_{3a303314-8dad-11e2-8254-001e37bcf047}\Registry\Machine".  In my compiled program, I get,  "\Registry\Machine".  Now, everything else shows perfectly fine.  Just this one key is not showing fully.  I'm running on Win7 32bit.

+1 to be able to disable it.
 
fist: I have 8 cores, so if some process runs to the top, the color in this column is barely noticeable.
 
second: the awful white color in dark schema windows... priceless :D
 
I'm very glad Mark make program like this, cause I use it for a long time now. But I cannot understand why he change proven functionality?
Eg. white tray icon... in dark schema it is more difficult to notice the green picks from CPU - all seems to look like one big white square. I had to stop use this square.
 
And now this.
It is good thing to add some features, but do it configurable - because sometimes it make the program unusable.

Thanks luciddream!
I know this is a old thread but turning of everything under Power Management for my network cards (Marvell Yukon 88E88056) did the trick for me also.

My somewhat outdated computer is overclocked to 3.2 GHz (original 2.4) and it was working at about 25% load as a minimum if Intel Speed step was enabled. If Speed step was disabled then everything was ok.

Now I can have speed step enabled  Smile

Thank you!

As you can see in the picture the Nonpaged Pool indications are different in RAMMap and in Process Explorer
 
RamMap --> 727.180 KB
Process Explorer --> 81.276 KB
What is the explanation?
I am using the latest version of both programs

I cannot find Task Manager "total indication" about Nonpaged Pool.
 
Process Hacker shows different results too

 
    
RAMMap --> 726.836 KB
 
Process Hacker --> 78.71 MB
 
I forgot to tell that I have Windows 7 64bit Home Premium (with 16 GB RAM)
 
To sum it up, Process Explorer and Process Hacker give similar results.

Which WinDbg version do you use? Version 6.12 has a bug reading the pool values. Use 6.11 or the Win8 RTM Build 6.2.9200.

I am using Windbg 6.12
Can you give me a link to the Win8 RTM Build 6.2.9200 DVD (ISO) windbg version (that I hope still works on Windows 7)?

Subject: Ability to copy environment variable(s)
Posted: 17 March 2013 at 1:45pm

Hello,

I have been trying to do the same thing (extracting the classpath of java processes).
It's too bad Process Explorer doesn't allow to do that. I found Process Hacker to be a good replacement for this, thanks wj32.

Also I would like to point out it seems to be a lost feature from 8.61 of PE.
What's new in Version 8.61:
[...]
  • Copy-to-clipboard from process environment variable and strings dialogs
  • Can select and copy text strings of process image properties page

I know this is an old topic, but it's still worth knowing.

So 6.11 "NonPagedPool Usage" is the same as "NonPagedPool Usage Nx" given by version 6.12
 
Anyway I think this is Virtual memory (and not  the Physical Memory shown by RAMMap)
 
Let's go back to the original question: Why RAMMap and Process Explorer show different results?
 
*EDIT*
PS
Is there any Poolmon.exe available for Windows 7?
