+If an application was linked with `/LARGEADDRESSAWARE`, `DUMPBIN` [/HEADERS](headers.md) will display information to that effect.

+Linking 64-bit applications with **`/LARGEADDRESSAWARE:NO`** is not recommended because it restricts the available address space, which can result in runtime failures if the app exhausts memory. It may also prevent x64 apps from running on ARM64 systems because the emulation runtime will try to reserve 4GB of virtual address space. If the app was linked with `/LARGEADRESSAWARE:NO`, the app won't launch because it can't allocate that much address space.

 Clang-Tidy runs result in warnings displayed in the Error List, and as in-editor squiggles underneath relevant sections of code. Use the "Category" column in the Error List to sort and organize Clang-Tidy warnings. You can configure in-editor warnings by toggling the "Disable Code Analysis Squiggles" setting under **Tools** > **Options**.
