how to trace a target program foreground?

[delphi0127]

when use 08_traceing.py, the target program is running backgroud. For example, when trace calc.exe, I can't find the dialog of calc, how can I see it?

There is no concept of running programs "in the background" in Windows, really. What's probably happening is that execution is much slower when tracing so you have to wait for the window to show up...

Hi, MarioVilas:

I trace calc.exe with 08_tracing.py again and agian, every trace spends about 24 hours, and in the end of every trace, the dialog of calc.exe didn't show up, see attachment.

thanks for answer.
