Configuring Your System for Optimal Analysis#

In order for your system to work well with the analysis tools provided by Nsight Graphics, there are a number of details you should consider.

Configure Developer Mode#

If using a Windows machine, we recommend running under Developer Mode.

Reasons to use Developer Mode include:

  • Preview versions of the D3D12 Agility SDK require Developer Mode.

  • Some applications can only replay with the D3D12 preview Agility SDK.

Please follow the instructions at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/get-started/developer-mode-features-and-debugging for setting up Developer Mode.
