I use xperf and WPA a lot and they normally work fine, however I've come across one scenario where the xperf trace that I record will reliably crash WPA. I'm using the latest (8.1 final) version of Windows Performance Toolkit (WPT). This is running on Windows 7 SP1.

Obviously this is a WPA bug. How do I report it so that it can get fixed? I looked on connect.microsoft.com and WPT is not one of the products accepting bugs.

I found that this bug only happens when the perf_dx.dll plugin is enabled, and we don't need it anymore. But, it would still be nice to have a place to report bugs.
