Time travel navigation commands
This section describes the time travel navigation commands.
p- (Step Back)
The p- command executes the previous single instruction or source line. When subroutine calls or interrupts occur, they are treated as a single step. You can invoke this command using the Step Over Back button on the Home ribbon in WinDbg.
t- (Trace Back)
The t- command executes the previous single instruction or source line. When subroutine calls or interrupts occur, each of their steps is also traced. You can invoke this command using the Step Into Back button on the Home ribbon in WinDbg.
g- (Go Back)
The g- command starts executing the current process in reverse. Execution will halt at the end of the program, when BreakAddress is hit, or when another event causes the debugger to stop. You can invoke this command using the Go Back button on the Home ribbon in WinDbg.
Additional Information
The time travel navigation commands only work with time travel traces. For more information about time travel, see Time Travel Debugging - Overview.
