# Specify Valgrind settings for a project

To specify settings for running applications on the Run device that you select for a kit, go to Projects > Run Settings.

With Valgrind's Tool Suite, you can detect memory leaks and profile function execution.

To specify Valgrind settings for the current project:

1. In the Valgrind Settings section, select Custom.
2. Specify Valgrind settings for the project.

3. In Valgrind executable, specify the path to the Valgrind executable.
4. In Valgrind arguments, specify additional arguments for Valgrind.
5. In Detect self-modifying code, select whether to detect self-modifying code and where to detect it: only on stack, everywhere, or everywhere except in file-backend mappings.

Select Restore Global to revert to the global settings.

To specify global Valgrind settings, select Preferences > Analyzer.
