tracelog gives no output

[Monk3yDLuffy]

Hi, I was trying to get output of bpf_printk on cmd and tried as mentioned in getting started doc but got following output with no further results from my bpf_printk.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.19041.0\x64>tracelog.exe -start MyTrace -guid ../../../../../../Users/Protolab_win_ebpf/ebpf-for-windows/scripts/ebpf-all.guid -rt

Is there anything i need to change with my setup?

All of the output you pasted looks normal. Since you used ebpf-all.guid not just ebpf-printk.guid, you ought to then see additional output whenever the ebpf driver does anything, such as loading a program. For example:

C:\Temp>tracefmt -rt MyTrace -displayonly -jsonMeta 0
Setting RealTime mode for  MyTrace
Examining C:\Temp\default.tmf for message formats,  none found, file not found

If you don't, can you provide more information about how you installed ebpf, and what "sc query ebpfcore" shows?
