The StopTracingSession function stops an ongoing tracing session and produces a raw trace file. You can pass raw trace files to the Analyze, AnalzeA, and AnalyzeW functions to start an analysis session. You can pass raw trace files to the Relog, RelogA, and RelogW functions to start a relogging session.

The caller must have administrator permissions to use StopTracingSession.
