PIX 1701.26 – GPU counter rollup, thread names, and high DPI UI

Shawn HargreavesJanuary 27, 2017Jan 27, 201701/27/17

Today we released PIX 1701.26 beta and an updated WinPixEventRuntime (version 1.0.170126001).  The event runtime upgrade is optional, as the latest PIX is compatible with older event runtimes.
Most of these changes are in response to early feedback from customers.  Your input is valuable to us,
