Debugging difference between Windows Vista e Windows 7

[MarcCama]

Hi all,

I develop applications in Visual Basic.NET (Visual Studio 2005) for a long time on Windows Vista without problem.

Now, I'm changing my laptop, and the new has installed the Windows 7. So, I reinstalled VS 2005, taking care to install the Vista compatibility. Thus, the version of my current VS 2005 is 8.0.50727.867 (vsvista.050727-8600) SP2. And that is my problem.

When I ran the application in debug mode (F5) on Windows Vista, a windows appeared whenever there was an error, like below:

Now, on Windows 7, the application just shows a exception message in the Immediate Windows, don't showing any error window, continuing the application execution, as below:

What do I do to fix this?

Thanks, Marcelo Camarate

Hi all,

Searching more deep in the Internet I found the page

https://connect.microsoft.com/Visua...ashes-terminating-debug-session?wa=wsignin1.0

with title "Visual Studio Debugger crashes on Windows 7 terminating debug session" that talks about my problem. The issue occurs only in Windows 7 64-bit (which is my operating system) for the treatment of some events in Visual Basic (as the load form). To workaround for this issue, they suggests that the first column (Thrown) in the Debug / Exceptions be checked.
