Dependency Walker or depends.exe is a free program for Microsoft Windows used to list the imported and exported functions of a portable executable file. It also displays a recursive tree of all the files it requires to work (dependencies) along with all this information. Dependency Walker was included in Microsoft Visual Studio until Version 8.0 and Windows XP SP2 support tools.

It has been developed by Steve Miller.

Basic Features

  • Runs on Windows 95, 98, Me, NT, 2000, XP, 2003, and Vista
  • List all dependent modules (portable executables)
  • Supports 64-bit and Windows CE executables
  • Detects if the module is programmed in C or C++
  • Detects modules not listed in the import address table
  • Color coding of the list to help highlight problems (broken dependencies are highlighted in red)
  • Traces dependencies recursively, and lists dependencies of all modules in a tree view
