Enable Jit Debugging Windows Vista
Thank you Bill gates, I download Visual studio, and after using it a few times 8 of my programmes won't run because of your piece of. The simple answer would of course be to uninstall it, so why is it a piece of.? I'll enlighten you, I have uninstalled it. As I am typing this, I am finding components from your. still on my computer, still crashing various applications.

I have done the HKey value thingys, googled for answers and I keep getting the same reply from microsoft, it's unlikely this is to do with visual studio. Here';s a small pointer, unlikely my foot. Why is it the errors only happened AFTER I installed your programme? I am sick of Microsoft and Bill gates, he was on an interview recently, where he was showing off his latest media center programme. Guess what people, surprise surprise, it wouldn't work. And before you suggest Vista I am a gamer, so it's no games or games and errors.
Great option that! Since I bought my computer, I have had nothing but errors with it. Why is it I get similar errors to my mum's windows 95? If you can't advance a PC in over ten years, you're either doing something wrong, or not doing it at all. So now we've established it is your software screwing my programmes up, and we've established I can't uninstall, even manually or from the control panel, I would like an answer that works and doesn't have a disclaimer saying, this will probably screw your comp up, it's already screwed thanks to microsoft. Seems to me that everyone involved with Msoft is thick. I can't make a system, but given the money Gates has, I could make a much better system than your.
Why would it be better? Here's the main answer; IT WOULD WORK.
So thank you for taking my money microsoft, thank you for not helping me thus far, and thank you for basically screwing up my computer with your own programmes. I wonder when we can expect an apology for the apes working on your systems?.silent laughter. I didn't think so somehow. Sorry, I take the last bit back, I don't want to insult any apes that may be reading this. I just went through the exact same thing, so don't listen to the reply post by the 'Visual Studio Debugger Dev'. I followed a solution a few posts down and it worked perfectly. Solution Open StartControl PanelsInternet Options: Advanced and activate (check box).
Disable Script Debugging (Internet Explorer). Disable Script Debuggung (Other) BTW - when a user disables a program from Windows, a portion of that program should no longer exist (as JIT does). It's ridiculous we have to deal with this at all. Hope this helped. Changing the settings in IIS is a good approach - but if you are like me and you run a web app within IIS, you might want script debugging turned on (so the browser will display the error message) but you DON'T want the JIT Debugger to run (because this makes everything else stop - including IIS). So here is what I did - (after trying numerous other solutions, including editing the registry) I found these instruction on another site (but they did not work for me so I came up with my own solution, below):.
what I found elsewhere - You should be able to disable the JIT Debugger in Internet Explorer, via: Windows Control Panel Internet Options Advanced tab: Checkmark both 'disable script debugging (IE/other)' options Uncheck 'display a notification about every script error' Or go to: Control Panel Admin Tools Services and disable Visual Studio JIT Debugger, if listed. Look for a service that points to one of the following executables: C: WINDOWS system32 vsjitdebugger.exe C: Program Files Common Files Microsoft Shared VS7Debug vs7jit.exe. THIS IS WHAT WORKED FOR ME: I went here C: WINDOWS system32 vsjitdebugger.exe and renamed vsjitdebugger.exe to vsjitdebuggerBACK.exe (.this worked for me).but just in case. Then I went here C: Program Files Common Files Microsoft Shared VS7Debug and I also renamed the folder VS7Debug (actually VS7DEBUG) to VSDebugback (VS7DEBUGback)And just as an FYI - it seems that this probelm occured for me because after uninstalling Visual Studio 2005 I did not uninstall SQL Server 2005. See this article. I would think that's the case.but I am sure my boyfriend's computer was crashed by this aswell.
He's the one who uses visual basic.and he's computer kept crashing down.boot it up.then dies down.it was a virus that he caught.I believe visual basic made it vulnerable for viruses or something. My computer had not had a problem for 5 years.when his computer crash a month ago, he installed visual on mine labtop. And now my labtop is not working property. I can not log on internet period.
The just in time debugger keeps popping up in the middle of my work and killing my programe. I not a genius in computer, but I know Visual basic needs to fix this problem. It's so shittie! I had Microsoft Expression installed which included Visual Studio and Silverlight. I use Windows XP. Expression continued to crash my computer and after a few weeks of technical support not being able to solve the problem for me, they let me return the software.
However, I am still getting this error: An unhandled win32 exception occurred in svchost.exe 1480. Just in time debugging this exeption failed with the following error: No installed debugger has Just in Time Debugging enabled. In Visual Studio Just in Time Debugging can be enabled from Tools/options/Debugging/Just in Time Well I don't have Visual Studio anymore, that was uninstalled. I do have a key in the registry where it was referred to above and it is currently set to zero. Is this the problem?
Help me fix this because my computer crashes when I play computer games, when I use Photoshop, when I use Nero Photo Viewer, etc. And I'm really really sick of this. I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this question, but I'm having issues, so here goes. My problem started when I tried to sign in to Windows Live Messenger, it wouldn't work. In my search to fix that, I realized that Internet Explorer would not work either, it kept displaying the error message, 'Unable to show the webpage.'
Then randomly, my Mozilla Firefox started to crash. I thought all of this was due to a virus. Next I was unable to sign into Yahoo Messenger. Then I started getting the Just-In-Time Debugger error. It asked me if I wanted to use Microsoft Script Editor to fix the problem. I clicked yes and it seemed to be working well, until I received a new error, 'Unable to open registry key 'HKEYLOCALMACHINE SOFTWARE DELL HWDiag PCDpath' for reading.' I am now at a loss as to how to fix things.
Mozilla continues to crash (it crashed once as I tried to sign in to type this out) and nothing internet related seems to work very well. Can anyone help me? Ok people here let me clear some things up for you. The default setting for JIT debugger in VS 2008 is set to 'on' for managed and native.
This is why when ever you have a program that ends unexpectedly or freezes up ( as the all tend to do at some point) JIT debugger pops up. Once it starts running it can in fact break your programs. Open up your Visual Studio program click tools/options/debugger and then JIT debugger. Uncheck all the boxes and now it is off.
If you have uninstalled VS2008 and you are still finding peices of it in your registry then Download CCleaner. This program is highly respected and will find all registry enteries from old deleted and uninstalled programs and make them go away. Almost every single program I have ever uninstalled leaves behind some unused regestry entry or.dll file in the system. I use it at work all the time. Now I cannot even get windows update to work without that just in time debugger error coming up.!!!! That never happened before.
I have tried setting the value to 1 as suggested above. That did not work. It already was set to zero. I uninstalled Visual Studio a long time ago with help from a microsoft tech.
I did not know I'd have the just in time issue because it didn't happen again for a while and now I'd have to pay hundreds of dollars for help. This is just getting to be impossible!!! Please help, someone? I have had simillar problums with debug but not with the debug with the actually program and debug has not interefeared with any of my programs yet considering i only had the program now for about 2 hours i was able to copy this repeated error to clip board i hope it helps the development team System.InvalidOperationException was unhandled Message=Collection was modified; enumeration operation may not execute.

I just happened onto this page, and the futility of it all. I've googled my rear end off, and nothing suggested by any of these msdn post have helped. It would be nice to try all of these suggestions but none of them work, and you all know that. There is nothing you can do, no codes, no start run, tools, nothing. And i think i'm pretty smart, not even dep, but the clean install.so why don't some of you brainiacs fess up and tell the masses there's nothing to fear but the just in time debugger, so reinstall your os now, completely give yourself over to the power of being made over, again, and again, and again.i didn't know that you could install software straight from microsoft, license key and all and screw up your machine so bad.i can't repeat what i'm thinking here, that it even changes settings in your media player. Even o positiive blood is a universal donor, but i am finding that this is not the case with microsoft.so just before the 24 hour window expires for me, i'll take any suggestions.
Clean installs are painless if you meticulously back up everything.anyone???? I tried prety much everything mentioned in this thread and nothing helped to. Including deleting vsjitdebugger.exe, deleting registry keys etc.
I'm asking myself - how is it even possible that even if I delete program that is suppose make this error messages it doesn't even change the error message! Its still absolutely the same! My error message looks like this: Is it the error message generated by visual studio or is it suppose to look diferent?
I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium (32bit). Also I did have Visual studio installed, but along with trying to get rid of this error I uninstalled it (I also cleaned my registry be Ccleaner as suggested here earlier). I have a related problem that perhaps someone here could shed some light on. Can anyone explain why Just-In-Time Debugger continues to randomly pop up after having a virus? I do not have, and have never had Visual Studio installed. I also had Just-in-Time Debugger popping up without having Visual Studio installed. Then my computer started freezing up after 5 minutes each time it was turned on except when in safe mode.
Now XP will not load (I can't even use safe mode) and I get a message that system32 Drivers pci.sys file is missing or corrupted. I try to load from the CD in repair mode but even that does not work-it tells me the file is not there. I have already tried all suggestions I could find that others used when they got the same message. Does anyone have anything else I can try before I just give up and hope a reinstall works? I've been having the same problem with Just-In-Time debugger preventing me from installing programs.
Yesterday I tried just about everything suggested in these posts, but with no success. However, this morning I checked this link: and I found that by changing the value of HKEYLOCALMACHINE SOFTWARE Microsoft Windows NT CurrentVersion AeDebug Debugger from 'c: WINDOWS system32 vsjitdebugger.exe' -p%ld -e%ld to 0 I solved the problem. I hope this helps anyone else who is having trouble.
I was just reading the thread! Kinda hilarious though. JIT is used to catch real time errors especially run-time. It is very useful for developers. To catch un handled exceptions. Jit comes as a part of Visual Studio. If you do not know how to manage Jit its better not to install Visual Studio (no skills to manage it will give you lots of trouble).
Just the programing skills does not make a good developer. Well its not a fault of VS developer team or Bill Gates. Jit will be invoked if enabled by Visual studio, instead of Dr Watson. If programs crash the crash handlers will be invoked and you will see Dr.Watson process running in the background.
It will call dumprep and will create error logs; Errors will be logged in Event Viewers as well. Even a simple failure will be handled and Jit will be invoked. So programs will begin to crash while they run or install. Some developers set programs to use Jit and Jit will be enabled instead of Dr.Watson. Dr.Watson will be invoked in serious errors however. But specially if you have installed Visual Studio, you will be using JIT as well.
JiT overrides the Dr.Watson Program. But you can reverse it back using two methods. Its a third party piece however.
I wonder why these MSDN people do not know how to provide a complete answer. Each and every person does not understand Administration of programs. So its their responsibility. That is a laughing matter though. But people will be pissed off. Can't blame them either.
Some of them are not familiar with regedit tools. So the answers have to be flexible and complete. The bad behavior of JIT is it will suspend the program an once when an error occur. You will never be allowed to run further.

So its kinda piece of. It also has security issues with it. Unfortunately if a program Invokes JIT intensionally its not possible to reverse the process.
Stop JIT while you have Visual Studio installed (Its a stupid thing to uninstall it without removing JIT. No way!) How this thing will be enabled?. Open VS:. Go to Tools and then Options.
In the Options Dialog box Double click Debugging and then click JIT. Enabling options:. Manage. Native. Script.
I am having all the the same problems as mentioned above. I first starting getting the Visual Studio Just In Time Debugger pop-ups only a few per day.
Then few per hour, until recently when they started popping up all the time! Now I am getting them all the time! It finally broke windows! I don't have a start bar, no icons, no clock, nothing. I can't even run a windows search. So I came across this post and other ones, which suggested I delete 2 registry keys.
How To Fix Jit Debugging
This did not fix the problem, my computer is very angry! That would work, except the command I was requested to enter didn't work, and I have no current debugger, apparently. Is there any way to deactivate or delete the process that alerts you to these script errors, which are apparently not causing the errors I'm encountering, as the machine only goes unstable if I close the JIT box too much, so I have come to believe that it is JIT that is causing to problem. I deleted the registry keys associated with JIT debugger, and now it comes up with a box saying that a script error has occured and there are no debuggers that can be used to debug. This does the exact same thing JIT usually does, which is constantly pop up at intervals and be a pain in the to get rid of, even temporarily, and then brick you system and require a reset. Hi, Sorry this is so long in coming.
I acquired the problem 4 days ago, I'm not crying so much anymore, I think it is gone now.:) By the way: I would be leery of anything changing the Registry, if you do so, be sure to write down the old settings just in case. Being a technical turkey, I saw the answer that worked a long time ago but didn't know how to do what they were saying.
So I will say it my way. When the blooming JustInTimeDebugger window pops up, click 'yes'. You should get a technical debugging page. A pop-up that says 'continue' or 'break' should be there.
Click 'break' and that little pop-up should exit (if not click 'continue' for I must have them backwards). At the top of the debugger screen that is left, click 'tools'; then 'options'.
A screen should appear with stuff at the left, when you highlight something at the left, information should appear about that subject on the right. I did this without writing it down so I will not remember exactly but you can do it as I did. I went through highlighting each word on the right and reading the screen it brought to the left. I am sorry that I do not remember the exact thing it said but I unchecked it. I think it said 'JIT something or alert me or something like that. Anyway, you will find it and should be able to figure out which it is. Don't forget to 'apply' before closing the debugger window.
Loveya, duane. Hello Everyone, I am a more advanced user and I have this same problem though I have discovered it in a different way. I am a developer with several instances of VS installed dating all the way back to 6.0 and in rare cases when I am prompted to choose among my many debuggers I don't really care.
Except when browsing the web of course where scripting errors are pretty common. As such I typically surf with Firefox and save IE for development tasks. I'm not really a Microsoft guy and I hate jumping to their defense here but they did not break your programs. They changed the way Windows deals with unhandled exceptions. Basically your applications never worked properly but i assume Dr Watson (or whatever) used to log those errors and let you go on your merry way.
Once you installed VS or the SDK or whatever developer tool you like, they assumed you would like the ability to JIT debug. That said I am usually launching the VS debugger myself and for them to assume that I want to debug every unhandled exception that comes along is a nuisance. Even more so the fact I am still getting these errors after trying to disable this damn thing every which way is really annoying. I am developing a windows service that must depend only on the 2.0 Framework (so no WCF).
As such I am going through the rigmarole of starting my service and attaching my debugger to the process. I was finding it peculiar that the debugger could never get passed unhandled exceptions and once I stopped the debugger (detached from the process) I STILL got that stupid debug prompt.
No big deal right.eventually I'll compile a release build and run it through without attaching. WRONG.the JIT debugger still wants to handle everything. All I want is for Windows to log the event and let the service run, which I assume is the case on any non-developer machine but nope.
I've read this whole thread and some of these posts are brilliant.still nothing has worked for me. Disabled JIT in VS 2003, 2005, 2008, and Windows SDK. Deleted the registry keys.
This is actually a Microsoft solution at Flipped AeDebug Auto key from 0 to 1. (I had high hopes for this one.) Disabled the Machine Debug Manager service. I even disabled the script debugging in IE.
I know this shouldn't matter but hoping maybe it hits the right registry value. Microsoft has done worse. I have to draw the line at hacking up the executables or disabling my Developer Toolbar. Does anyone out there have any other ideas? My error is actually a visual studio error telling me none of my instances has a JIT debugger available. I really feels like I just haven't touched on the right registry setting yet.
Do I really need to go back and set the Dr Watson executable as the default? In the meantime I think I'll practice what I preach and write my own error logging and stop lazily expecting Windows to handle it for me. I ran the drwtsn -i command w/o success, so I stepped into the VB debugger program and went to tools and then the JIT debugger options and unchecked the run the debugger choice. I didn't experience any more issues on that workstation but I didn't hang around long enough to see if it worked but i also found an executable in the startup called mobsync.exe that I disabled but didn't reboot.

There were about 10 outlook.exe programs in the task manager which could have been launched by that executable, so I ran malwarebytes on it in the meantime. I have experienced a similar problem after Visual Studio Shell (included with SQL Server 2008) was installed. The crashing app is a Microsoft IIS ASP web page - should I send the bug report to Microsoft? Makes sense to me! Seriously, instead of simply allowing the browser to display the 500 error message, Just In Time insists on taking over the entire server by displaying a system modal dialog box. Sounds like a bad design to me. I guess the designers of JIT never heard of log files.
I keep getting this message no matter what I try. See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box. Exception Text. System.FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format. I had to go to extremes to fix this issue, I disabled every script within Internet explorer and I disabled JIT in every copy of visual studio that I use, In the registry I went as far as to delete the JIT keys and still I got the popup window, only this time telling me that it was not connected to any instance of VS which of course it was not because I systematically disabled it everywhere. I use Windows7 x64 and to fix this I eventually found where the VSJitDebugger.exe was installed and just deleted it. That will 100% work as it is no longer present on the machine to cause you an issue with any popup.
Uninstalling VS may leave it behind, so delete it direct. For me it was located here: 'C: Windows system32 VSJitDebugger.exe' After deleting the EXE file - no pop ups occur:-) Hope that helps someone!
