I had been using ADInsight from Sysinternals to trace Active Directory calls from my workstation, but the application has failed.

Where previously the Active Directory events were traced and logged, now the window remains blank, whether the application is in capture mode or not. I have run as Administrator, rebooted, downloaded a new version; none of those actions has returned the program to a functional state.

The Sysinternals forums don't offer much hope, since this tool is known to fail often.

Is there tool that has similar functionality?

Questions

Does the tool fail when run from another workstation with your account? Yes

Does it fail from your (and/or) another workstation using someone else's account? Yes

Is there anything in the event log of your workstation? No
