Heh, interesting. Any specific reason for the stuttering? Or just arbitrary inconsistent historical decision?

- mehrdadn 7y agoNot sure! My guess is the name would've just felt too short otherwise.
- windozeee 7y agoI'll give you a better one. On a 64 bit Windows: - the 64 bit binaries are stored in C:\Windows\System32 - the 32 bit binaries are stored in C:\Windows\SysWOW64
- quotemstr 7y agoI'm guessing it's because module names are sometimes used without the extension and "ntdll" looks better in such a list than "nt".
- DHowett 7y agoI think it’s because the kernel’s module name is “nt”. It’ll show up like that in stack traces on occasion.
