Just in time debugging error box opens

original title: Just in time debugging error__

I get this error message all the time

An exception 'Runtime Error' has occurred in Script

The "Just in time debugging" box opens..

"Possible list of Debuggers"

Only option I have for Debuggers is New instance of Microsoft Script Editor

"do you want to debug using the selected debugger" Yes or No

If I choose yes I get error message that "cannot create Application Data Folder

I am not sure what else to try. Most tell me to change settings in internet explorer however I use Firefox so that is not very helpful to me..Thanks for your help..

Hi xrayjones,

Did you have a version of Visual Studio installed on the machine e.g. an express edition perhaps at some point?

If you have Visual Studio installed but not using it, you may uninstall it from Programs and features .

To avoid getting these messages you can disable Just-in-Time debugging. Follow the instructions in the following link. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/5hs4b7a6.aspx

If that does little help, you could also change values in the registry.

1. Open the Start Menu.

2. In the white line (Start Search) area, type regedit and press Enter.

3. Click on Continue in the UAC prompt.

4. In regedit, go to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Script\Settings\JITDebug

5. The REG_DWORD type value must be set to "0" to disable debug.

6. Close regedit.

7. Logoff and logon, or restart the computer to apply the changes

REGISTRY EDIT DISCLAIMER:
