Installing Windows Performance Toolkit (WPT)

So, you want to install the Windows Performance Toolkit?  This is located in the Windows SDK which you can download here.  If you’re like me, you may not want to blindly install the entire SDK.  The installer options that provide the WPT installers are the ‘Win32 Development Tools’ and/or ‘.NET Development Tools’ option under ‘Developer Tools’ (see below).

After you have completed the installation of the SDK, then you should find your WPT installers in <WindowsSdkDir>\Bin (see below).  Simply install the one that matches your platform.
