    I don't know the product, but you don't have an "exe" in XF applications. I think dotmemory does not support XF apps

    @Alessandro Caliaro yes, in the end i found that to profile xamarin forms app, you have to use xamarin profiler that can be used in visual studio x enterprise, which is not that great as dotmemory. but in the end there is a dotmemory library which is free that allow us to profile the xamarin forms app at runtime throught the code.

    you can also as suggested from @Kyle Wang , compile the Xamarin.UWP at exe and profile it from dotmemory wich is the only way.
    but unfortunately i have a complected app that require a lot of work to compile it in UWP.

    thanks for the answer
