Disclaimer
Last Updated: March 20, 2026
Website disclaimer
PerfView.net is an independent informational website built by fans of the software. We write about PerfView and related performance analysis tools because we find them genuinely useful and want to help others discover them too.
We have no connection to Microsoft, the .NET Performance team, Vance Morrison, or any other developer whose software appears on this site. All product names, logos, brands, and trademarks belong to their respective owners. We use these names only so you know what we are talking about. Their appearance here does not mean those companies approve of or sponsor this website.
No affiliation or association
PerfView.net is independently operated. We do not represent, speak for, or act on behalf of Microsoft or any software developer listed here.
Everything on this site comes from publicly available sources: official documentation, GitHub repositories, release notes, community forums, and our own hands-on use. If you need official support, bug reports, or feature requests for PerfView, go directly to the official GitHub repository.
Download and file hosting
We do not host software files on our servers. When you click a download link on PerfView.net, it takes you to the original source where the developer distributes the file. That means:
- Official developer websites
- GitHub release pages
- Microsoft Store or other legitimate app stores
We never modify, repackage, or alter any software. The file you get comes straight from the original distributor. That said, we cannot guarantee that external links will always work or that files on third-party servers remain unchanged. Always double-check downloads from the official source before running them.
No warranty
All information on this website is provided “as is.” We do our best to keep things accurate, but we make no guarantees. Software versions change. Features get added or removed. System requirements shift with new releases. We may not catch every update the moment it happens.
If something on this site looks outdated or wrong, it probably just means we have not gotten around to updating it yet. We are not trying to mislead anyone.
Limitation of liability
Using any software you find through this site is entirely your responsibility. PerfView.net and its operators are not liable for:
- Damage to your computer, data, or operating system
- Data loss or reduced productivity
- Security problems from downloaded software
- Compatibility issues with your hardware or OS
- Any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages
Before installing anything, you should:
- Verify the file came from the official source
- Scan downloads with your antivirus software
- Back up important data first
- Check that your system meets the minimum requirements
Respect for developers
The people who build tools like PerfView put in serious work. Vance Morrison and the .NET Performance team have made PerfView available for free under the MIT license, and that is worth appreciating.
This site exists to help people find and learn about useful software. We have no interest in undermining the developers behind it. If you find a tool through our site that helps you, consider supporting the people who made it:
- Use premium or paid versions when they are available
- Report bugs and give feedback through official channels
- Respect the software license agreements
- Star the project on GitHub if it helped you
Fair use and DMCA policy
The descriptions, guides, screenshots, and feature lists on this site are written for informational and educational purposes. We believe this falls under fair use:
- We write commentary and reviews about software
- We publish educational guides and how-to content
- We report on software features and updates
We respect copyright law and comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).

External links
This site links to external websites that we do not control. We are not responsible for the content, privacy policies, or practices of those sites. A link from PerfView.net does not mean we endorse that external site. Use your own judgment when following links off our pages.
Changes to this disclaimer
We may update this page from time to time. If we do, the “Last Updated” date at the top will change. Continuing to use the site after an update means you accept the revised disclaimer.
