The definitive guide to modern Windows internals: new coverage of
virtualization, file systems, boot, security, and more. For
advanced computing professionals, this is the definitive up-to-date
guide to how Windows core components behave "under the hood." Using
it, experienced developers can build more powerful and scalable
software, administrators can debug complex system and performance
problems, and security researchers can harden their systems. This
Seventh Edition is fully updated through the May 2021 (21H1/2104)
updates to Windows 10 and Windows Server (2022, 2019, and 2016). It
adds extensive content on Hyper-V, plus fully rewritten chapters on
the boot process, new storage technologies, and Windows system and
management mechanisms. As always, it delivers unparalleled insight
based on insider access to Microsoft source code, with hands-on
experiments using the latest debugging tools to show you Windows'
internal behaviors firsthand. With Windows 11 introducing new user
interface design elements that build upon the same core
technologies as Windows 10, readers will be well-prepared for this
new chapter of computing. Leading Windows insiders help you: *
