USBTrace : Software-only USB Protocol Analyzer

USBTrace is an easy to use and powerful USB analyzer. USBTrace can monitor USB transactions at host controllers, hubs and devices. This is a 100% software product. USBTrace supports Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server and Windows Vista operating systems and works with USB 1.x and 2.0 (low, full and high speed) host controllers, hubs and devices.

Ease of use
With USBTrace you can monitor your devices very easily. Just select the device to be monitored and click 'capture'.

Monitors USB requests at all levels
With USBTrace you can monitor USB requests at USB Host Controllers, USB Hubs and USB devices.

USBTrace does not use any filter drivers
Unlike other software analyzers, USBTrace does not use any filter driver to capture the USB requests. So USBTrace will not disturb the PnP system due to its presence.

Captures all USB requests during device enumeration
USBTrace is capable of capturing all USB requests exchanged between the host controller/hub and the device during device enumeration. See USB Enumeration Explained to know how USBTrace is different from other USB monitor software.

Displays valuable information for WDM device driver developers
The IRP, URB and IO_STACK_LOCATION structures associated with each captured request is decoded and displayed by USBTrace. Also, in addition to capturing URBs, USBTrace captures Internal USB IOCTLs, User mode USB IOCTLs, PnP and Power IRPs.

USBTrace also allows WDM driver developers to capture USB requests made/received by any device object in the USB device stack.
