vm_snapshot_restore

MCP tool from Windbg MCP by memoryforensics1

Restore a named snapshot (debug sessions are cleanly torn down and can reconnect after)

How to use it

Project documentation lists vm_snapshot_restore for the Windbg MCP MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
