Microsoft Visual Studio Unable to break execution

Asked By TonyMorgan 0 points N/A Posted on - 08/14/2011

I had been working on a C# project for some time now. When I try to debug the C# project code, in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 I get an error message.

I recently had a virus infection because of which, I cleaned up my machine. I guess there could be some files related to MS Visual Studio.  I am able to run the other entire projects fine, since their code is built in C++.

Thanks for your help.

It’s hard to tell the exact reason of the problem, based on the minimal information you gave.  Does this only happen on a particular project? Or maybe particular block of code or is it randomly showing up?

Have you tried using ADPlus to get much more information about the problem?

ADplus is a tool, built by Microsoft Product Support Services.  It can troubleshoot a process (in your case VS) or application that stops hangs, fails or crashes.

• Try to disable all you VS plug-in.
• Run detached then attach from Windbg.
• Try these troubleshooting tips and also try to get back and provide much more information.
