For more information about the suspend count and how suspended threads behave and for a list of other commands that control the suspending and freezing of threads, see Controlling Processes and Threads.

Remarks

Every time that you use the ~n command, the thread's suspend count is increased by one.

The thread's start address is displayed when you use this command.
