Where is "vfbasics.pdb" on windows 7?

Question

It seems to be absent from the MS public symbol store, but it is also absent from the C:\Windows\System32 folder.

My symbol path is configured correctly, because I do get symbols for kernel32.dll and alike downloaded from the MS public symbol store and recognized by windbg.

Answer 1

It looks like the PDB is missing the MSI's. It used to be in MSI's for the earlier versions back to 4.1. But since going to 6.2 (part of Windows 7\8 SDK), the MSI's to not have the private PDBs.
