Title: Debugging
Post by: findlay95 on October 11, 2010, 09:39:59 AM

When I recently try to play a Real Player video I get an error message about Win32 exception...Just-in-Time debugging...no installed debugger. How can I resolve this problem?
Using Windows XP home.

Do you have Visual Studio installed?
Or had it installed and removed it?

I did a "search" and there are numerous listings of Visual Studio although, I never use it.

Seeing you have it installed, try the following, thru VS
To enable/disable Just-In-Time debugging
- On the Tools menu, click Options.
- In the Options dialog box, select the Debugging folder.
- In the Debugging folder, select the Just-In-Time page.
- In the Enable Just-In-Time debugging of these types of code box, select or clear the relevant program types: Managed, Native, or Script.

thanks, I could not find any way to open the program. So,  I used Revo Uninstaller to completely remove all parts of Microsoft Visual Studio and restarted. Upon clicking on a video, I get the same old message referencing debugging and VS even though it is uninstalled. (?)

Since you have remove VS, you should reregister DrWatson as default debugger

Go to START>>RUN>>type in cmd
Hit ENTER

At the command prompt, type the following
drwtsn32 -i

note the single space after drwtsn32, before -
Then hit Enter
You should receive a prompt
"Dr. Watson has been installed as the default application debugger."
Click OK

Reboot the computer then try RealPlayer again
