kcwallace Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 I have breakpoints inserted into my code, but the will not stop. I know they are being reached. They worked in the past, but have stopped. I a completely updated VS2005 and completely updated Vista Business OS. I also tried reinstalling VS. It had no effect Any suggestions? Quote Go Beavs!!!

kcwallace Posted January 13, 2008 Author Posted January 13, 2008 I figured it out. Breakpoints will not work in Vista unless you run it as an Administrator. Add another strange Vista Behavior Quote Go Beavs!!!
mskeel Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 I recall in XP the user doing the debugging needed to be in the Visual Studio Debugger User's Group. Perhaps there is an equivalent requirement in Vista? Useful if, for example, it is not possible for a person to become the administrator of their machine. Quote
Administrators PlausiblyDamp Posted January 15, 2008 Administrators Posted January 15, 2008 IIRC it depends on the version of Vista being used, the 'home' editions do not allow you to create groups etc. you are either an admin or you are not... The various 'business' editions should allow you to create and use groups and if you install VS onto one of these versions you should get the debuggers group being created.
