I try to do some basic learnings for exploit dev, so I setup a Win XP SP3 machine, installed WinDbg for XP from here:

I set Symbols path to:

srv*c:\symbols*https://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols

Then I simply start to debug Windows Media Player wmplayer.exe When I try to show the !peb, I always get the message that my

Debugger is not using the correct symbols.

Any idea ?

Try `.reload /f;ld *` after setting the symbol path – Thomas Weller Oct 07 '18 at 18:20
in windbg run `!sym noisy; .reload /f /v` to get more details about symbol loading. post the output. Btw where are you from? – magicandre1981 Oct 25 '18 at 15:07
