On Windows, tracert sends ICMP Echo Request packets, rather than the UDP packets traceroute sends by default. The time-to-live (TTL) value, also known as hop limit, is used in determining the intermediate routers being traversed towards the destination. Traceroute sends packets with TTL values that gradually increase from packet to packet
traceroute is a great tool to investigate network routing, check connection speeds, or identify bottlenecks. Windows also has a tracert command that functions similarly. However, you don’t want to bombard unknown devices with torrents of UDP packets, and be wary of including traceroute in scripts or unattended jobs. traceroute - Wikipedia On Windows, tracert sends ICMP Echo Request packets, rather than the UDP packets traceroute sends by default.

If you google "Windows UDP Traceroute" you will find some of the tools. – SleepyMan Jan 4 '17 at 15:19. This isn't guaranteed to be supported any more but you could create a traceroute util entirely in windows "rawsockets" similar to winsock. – marshal craft Jan 4 '17 at 16:46.
Traceroute (MS Windows tracert) sends UDP packets with incrementing Time-To-Live (TTL) values (first is a ttl of 1, next is ttl of 2, etc). When the UDP packet arrives at a hop with an expired TTL value, that device sends (is supposed to send) an ICMP TTL Expired message back to the source.
