VC++ help

[Remedy]

Now I'm not sure if this shouuld be in this section, but I figured all the programming people look here the most.

For anybody that uses VC++ I have a question. Why does VC++ insist on trying to debug other programs. Now some people ask what exactly happens, and I normally get flamed for not giving enough info, but it happens all the time, so the errors are different everytime.

When I say debug everything, I mean an error window pops up when trying to run certain windows APPs; talking about hard code braks or tons of other things. It then asks if I want to debug or terminate the program.

Is there anyway to turn this function of VC++ off? I mean, I can't watch a movie and and have VC++ on the same computer.

the program? or actuall code? or ???

possible fix

Just don't debug it then. I get those sometimes asking to fix a problem in some app. If you are NOT using VC++ but have it installed then just uninstall it. Otherwise stop crashing those apps.

yeah, jsut don't click debug.

I don't hit debug, but it crashes the program. U guys sure theres no way of turning it off?

If you're getting that window asking you to debug, didn't your program already crash? Right?

In any case, you get that dialog, because you are logged in as a user with debugging permissions. If you turn that off, then you won't be able to debug when you want to (with that same user at least).

If you're using Visual Studio 6.0 or .NET, I believe you can turn off JIT debugging for native applications. I'm guessing, but that my eliminate it.

Ultimately you can just ignore it...
