u, ub, uu (Unassemble)

The u\* commands display an assembly translation of the specified program code in memory.

This command should not be confused with the ~u (Unfreeze Thread) command.

u[u|b] Range 
u[u|b] Address
u[u|b] 

Parameters

Range
Specifies the memory range that contains the instructions to disassemble. For more information about the syntax, see Address and Address Range Syntax. If you use the b flag, you must specify Range by using the "Address LLength" syntax, not the "Address1 Address2" syntax.

Address
Specifies the beginning of the memory range to disassemble. Eight instructions on an x86-based processor are unassembled. For more information about the syntax, see Address and Address Range Syntax.

b
Determines the memory range to disassemble by counting backward. If ub Address is used, the disassembled range will be the eight or nine byte range ending with Address. If a range is specified using the syntax ub Address LLength, the disassembled range will be the range of the specified length ending at Address.

u
Specifies that the disassembly will continue even if there is a memory read error.

Remarks

If you do not specify a parameter for the u command, the disassembly begins at the current address and extends eight instructions on an x86-based or x64-based processor. When you use ub without a parameter, the disassembly includes the eight or nine instructions before the current address.

Do not confuse this command with the up (Unassemble from Physical Memory). The u command disassembles only virtual memory, while the up command disassembles only physical memory.
