# NAME
Debug-Process

# SYNOPSIS
Debugs one or more processes running on the local computer.

# SYNTAX
Debug-Process [-Name] <string[]> [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameters>]

Debug-Process [-Id] <Int32[]> [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameters>]

Debug-Process -InputObject <Process[]> [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameters>]

# DESCRIPTION
The Debug-Process cmdlet attaches a debugger to one or more running processes on a local computer. You can specify the processes by their process name or process ID (PID), or you can pipe process objects to Debug-Process.

Debug-Process attaches the debugger that is currently registered for the process. Before using this cmdlet, verify that a debugger is downloaded and correctly configured.

# PARAMETERS
-Id <Int32[]>
Specifies the process IDs of the processes to be debugged. The parameter name ("-Id") is optional.

To find the process ID of a process, type "get-process".

Required? true
Position? 1
Default value None
Accept pipeline input? true (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false

-InputObject <Process[]>
Specifies the process objects that represent processes to be debugged. Enter a variable that contains the process objects or a command that gets the process objects, such as a Get-Process command. You can also pipe process objects to Debug-Process.

Required? true
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? true (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters? false

-Name <string[]>
Specifies the names of the processes to be debugged. If there is more than one process with the same name, Debug-Process attaches a debugger to all processes with that name. The parameter name ("Name") is optional.

Required? true
Position? 1
Default value
Accept pipeline input? true (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false

-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]
Prompts you for confirmation before executing the command.

Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false

-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]
Describes what would happen if you executed the command without actually executing the command.

Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false

<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,
ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,
OutBuffer and OutVariable. For more information, type,
"get-help about_commonparameters".

# INPUTS
System.Int32, System.Diagnostics.Process, System.String
You can pipe a process ID (Int32), a process object (System.Diagnostics.Process), or a process name (String) to Debug-Process.

# OUTPUTS
None
This cmdlet does not generate any output.

# NOTES

This cmdlet uses the AttachDebugger method of the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) Win32_Process class. For more information about this method, see "AttachDebugger Method" in the MSDN (Microsoft Developer Network) library at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=143640.

# EXAMPLE 1

C:\PS>debug-process -name powershell

# Description
-----------
This command attaches a debugger to the PowerShell process on the computer.

# EXAMPLE 2

C:\PS>debug-process -name sql*

# Description
-----------
This command attaches a debugger to all processes that have names that begin with "sql".

# EXAMPLE 3

C:\PS>debug-process winlogon, explorer, outlook

# Description
-----------
This command attaches a debugger to the Winlogon, Explorer, and Outlook processes.

# EXAMPLE 4

C:\PS>debug-process -id 1132, 2028

# Description
-----------
This command attaches a debugger to the processes that have process IDs 1132 and 2028.

# EXAMPLE 5

C:\PS>get-process powershell | debug-process

# Description
-----------
This command attaches a debugger to the PowerShell processes on the computer. It uses the Get-Process cmdlet to get the PowerShell processes on the computer, and it uses a pipeline operator (|) to send the processes to the Debug-Process cmdlet.

To specify a particular PowerShell process, use the ID parameter of Get-Process.

# EXAMPLE 6

C:\PS>$pid | debug-process

# Description
-----------
This command attaches a debugger to the current PowerShell processes on the computer.

It uses the $pid automatic variable, which contains the process ID of the current PowerShell process. Then, it uses a pipeline operator (|) to send the process ID to the Debug-Process cmdlet.

For more information about the $pid automatic variable, see about_Automatic_Variables.

# EXAMPLE 7

C:\PS>get-process -computername Server01, Server02 -name MyApp | debug-process

# Description
-----------
This command attaches a debugger to the MyApp processes on the Server01 and Server02 computers.

It uses the Get-Process cmdlet to get the MyApp processes on the Server01 and Server02 computers. It uses a pipeline operator to send the processes to the Debug-Process cmdlet, which attaches the debuggers.

# EXAMPLE 8

C:\PS>$p = get-process powershell

C:\PS> debug-process -inputobject $p

# Description
-----------
This command attaches a debugger to the PowerShell processes on the local computer.

The first command uses the Get-Process cmdlet to get the PowerShell processes on the computer. It saves the resulting process object in the $p variable.

The second command uses the InputObject parameter of Debug-Process to submit the process object in the $p variable to Debug-Process.
