Outcome: VTune Amplifier analyzes the target, finalizes the result, and opens the collected data in a default viewpoint. The data collection result (*.amplxe file) shows up in the Project Navigator under the My Amplifier Results folder, in the alphabetical order. Double-click a result to open the collected data in a default viewpoint.

Note

  • You can provide a meaningful name for the result (for example, application name) for better identification. To do this, select the result, right-click and choose Rename. The file extension *.amplxe cannot be changed.

  • To change the result name template or the default directory for result location, go to Options... and select Intel VTune Amplifier version > Result Location from the left pane of the Options dialog box.
