The second volume of this book is divided into five parts, a total of 30 chapters, mainly around the Introduction of Windows system. The first chapter (chapters 1-4) introduces the brief history of Windows system, processes and threads, architecture and system components, as well as the startup process of Windows system. It not only describes the software world of Windows from the perspective of space, but also describes the building process of Windows world from the perspective of time.

The second (chapters 5-8) describes special procedure calls, shippers, the managed world, and Linux subsystems. Chapter 3 (chapters 9-19) delved into the user-mode debugging model, the user-mode debugging process, interrupt and exception management, unhandled exceptions and JIT debugging, hard errors and blue screens, error reporting, logging, event tracing, WHEA, kernel debugging engines, and validation mechanisms. Part 4 (Chapters 20 to 25) Outlines compiler debugging support in terms of compile and compile-time checking, runtime libraries and runtime checking, stack and function calls, heap and heap checking, compilation of exception-handling code, debugging symbols, and so on. Chapter 5 (Chapters 26-30) begins with an overview of the debugger’s history, working model, and classical architecture, followed by a discussion of the debugger integrated in Visual Studio and Visual Studio (VS) Code, respectively, and concludes with an in-depth look at the history, structure, and usage of the WinDBG debugger.
