Windows 7 Patched - Getsystemtimepreciseasfiletime

When analyzing crash dumps or stack traces, debuggers expect standard Windows APIs. A custom hook will appear as a call to an unknown function, complicating root-cause analysis.

void init_time_interp() QueryPerformanceFrequency(&qpc_freq); QueryPerformanceCounter(&qpc_base); GetSystemTimeAsFileTime(&ft_base); time_init = 1; getsystemtimepreciseasfiletime windows 7 patched

When analyzing crash dumps or stack traces, debuggers

Popularized by tools like EasyHook or Microsoft Detours , this method involves: time_init = 1
