> **Note on acquiring `cdb.exe` on Windows 11**
>
> `cdb.exe` is acquired alongside a suitable "Windows 11 SDK" which is part of
> the "Desktop Development with C++" workload profile in a Visual Studio
> installer (e.g. Visual Studio 2022 installer).
>
> **HOWEVER** this is not sufficient by default alone. If you need `cdb.exe`,
> you must go to Installed Apps, find the newest "Windows Software Development
> Kit" (and yes, this can still say `Windows 10.0.22161.3233` even though the OS
> is called Windows 11). You must then click "Modify" -> "Change" and then
> selected "Debugging Tools for Windows" in order to acquire `cdb.exe`.
