#Stack trace on Windows
* Download and install [Visual Studio 2015 Community](https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/community/).
* Download the [nightly build](https://github.com/citra-emu/citra-nightly/releases), [source code](https://github.com/citra-emu/citra-nightly/releases) and [debug symbols](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/citrabot/citra-nightly/build/artifacts) (__make sure they have the same commit hash__). If you've compiled your own [msvc build](https://github.com/citra-emu/citra/wiki/Building-for-Windows#msvc-build-for-windows), then skip this and the following step.

* Extract them and place the .pdb files from the debug symbols into the nightly build folder.
* Run Citra and initiate the crash. If you've compiled your own msvc build, then run Citra from `./citra/build/bin/Release`.
* A message box will pop up, select Debug.

* Another message box will pop up, make sure "New instance of Microsoft Visual Studio 2015" is selected and select Yes.

* Visual Studio will start up and ask for the file in the source code. Find the file in the source code that you extracted. In this example, it's debug_utils.cpp. This step is unnecessary if you've compiled yourself.
