Hello,
It seems that Microsoft forgot to publish the debug symbol files for the .NET Framework binaries distributed with the .NET 4.5.2 update.
For example, the following diagnostic message is printed by windbg/symchk when attempting to download the symbols for x64 clr.dll, version 4.0.30319.34209, distributed with the .NET 4.5.2 update (when the update is installed on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1):
SYMSRV:
http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols/clr.pdb/E3E0C76A7909454FB3C56B0C2CE5FFEB2/clr.pdb not found
DBGHELP: clr - no symbols loaded
As a result, diagnostic tools (such as SOS.dll debugger extension, profilers, etc.) fail to work correctly.
It is already over 50 days since the release - and these CLR builds are starting to pop up in customer installations.
Is there any other way to obtain the PDB files?
Thank you.
