File extension SYM description:
If you want the entire set of symbols for Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, or Windows 2000, then you can download a symbol package and install it on your computer:
- Private symbols files have all information in them for the debugger to resolve data (local variables, structure type information, functions, source file name/line info...).
- Public symbols files are essentially stripped versions of private symbols that usually just contain the function information so that stack traces work. Sometimes limited type information is included so that debugger extensions can work.
- Export symbols are the symbols contained inside the binary, so you have these without a .pdb. They contain the public/exported function names.

Microsoft Windows is a family of operating systems by Microsoft. They can run on several types of platforms such as servers, embedded devices and, most typically, on personal computers. Microsoft first introduced an operating environment named Windows in November 1985 as an add-on to MS-DOS in response to the growing trend of graphical user interfaces (GUI) popularized by the Macintosh. Microsoft Windows eventually came to dominate the world's personal computer market.
