No nvprof command of nsys

[yuantonghao]

I’m following the nsight system user guide and trying the nsys nvprof comnand on windows.
but it says nvprof is not a valid command of nsys

nsys nvprof my_app.exe

Unknown command: nvprof
 usage: nsys [--version] [--help] <command> [<args>] [application] [<application args>]

 The most commonly used nsys commands are:
        profile       Run an application and capture its profile into a nsys-rep file.
        launch        Launch an application ready to be profiled.
        start         Start a profiling session.
        stop          Stop a profiling session and capture its profile into a nsys-rep file.
        cancel        Cancel a profiling session and discard any collected data.
        stats         Generate statistics from an existing nsys-rep or SQLite file.
        status        Provide current status of CLI or the collection environment.
        shutdown      Disconnect launched processes from the profiler and shutdown the profiler.
        sessions list List active sessions.
        export        Export nsys-rep file into another format.
        analyze       Identify optimization opportunities in a nsys-rep or SQLITE file.
        recipe        Run a recipe for multi-node analysis.
 Use 'nsys --help <command>' for more information about a specific command.

 To run a basic profiling session:   nsys profile ./my-application

Unfortunately I believe that that option is only available on Linux targets.

You should be able to get a basic run with “nsys profile appname.exe”
