IDA PRO - compare running process

Reverse Engineering Asked by dandan on January 7, 2021

I have a software which writes some data to specific location in memory depending on user choices.
Say i can have 2 choices, A & B.
I want to run IDA, set option A and save all the data, then run it again with option B and save and after that compare the 2.

Can i do this?

How?

You may collect code coverage in both cases and then make a diff via ida plugin like lighthouse

What you are asking for is called "Differential Debugging". Take a look to this tutorial to see how to do so with IDA without requiring any kind of plugins, just built-in functionality.
