How to get rid of “just in time debugging” (II)
I am writing this article as an update to an old post in which one I offered some help in removing “just-in time debugging” pop-up message. It seems that the old method doesn’t help you guys too much, despite the fact that for me was working just perfect. So, here a couple of new methods, part of them successfully tested by me over the years. Hope these will get you all into the right track :)
1. The registry method:
Open up the registry window by clicking on START and writing in run command: regedit (in translation reg(istry) edit). Hit OK.
Now go to:HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Script\Settings\JITDebug
Make it 0.
This is doing practically the same thing as the method I have been presented into the old post but since for some of you is not working, maybe there was a glitch and hopefully this new one will do the job.
2. DrWatson method:
START / Run / type cmd and hit OK / type drwtsn32 -i and hit enter.
3. Disable Virtual Studio JIT Debugger:
Control Panel > Admin Tools > Services and disable Visual Studio JIT Debugger, if exist. If not, take a ride through system services that are pointing to one of the following software:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\vsjitdebugger.exe
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VS7Debug\vs7jit.exe
Disable anything you get related to these services. Or better, look after that executable into your computer files and rename them.
As an ultimate advice, download and install CCleaner and search and remove every registry entries from old deleted and uninstalled programs which can possible screw up your computer and make it generate errors and pop-up messages like this one.
Another advice is to remove IE developer’s toolbar. I’d been using it in the past, too. Now I open Firefox and there is that golden tool for developers, named Firebug so I almost forget IE and its bull-crap.
Good luck with removing of Just in time debugging pop-up and let me know if any of these methods help.

Ok, finally I hope this does it. XP- In Admin Tools -> Services I found Machine Debug Manager pointing to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VS7DEBUG\MDM.EXE
I gave it the axe.
Thanks
John glad it works.
Thank you VeryMuch!!!!
I had to run all of the above solutions before I got it to work. Excellent advice. Thanx
After a week of head-smashing and depression, the last method finally worked. I use Windows XP – Start -> Control Panel -> Performance and Maintenance -> Administrative Tools (under ‘or pick a Control Panel icon’) -> Services (which opens a window)-> Machine Debug Manager -> Right click -> “Stop”.
The box never appeared again, thank you!
none of these work. i already had those boxes ticked. i am running vista home prem and ie8 and none of the registry keys even exist except for one and it already is zero and i still continue to get this annoying pop up.
I did what Kris (above) said and it workes instantly … this is what I did:
Start -> Control Panel -> Performance and Maintenance -> Administrative Tools (under ‘or pick a Control Panel icon’) -> Services (which opens a window)-> Machine Debug Manager -> Right click -> “Stop”.
at first it said that it couldnt be stopped because it hadent stopped in a timely manner but I tried it again and it worked. So far I havent seen the box. Thanks alot!
This really helps people like me who can’t afford to repair or get a new computer…and want to help themselves!!!
Thanks Kris :) it worked perfectly ! and the boxe never appeared again
It worked for me,viz., C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VS7Debug\vs7jit.exe, I just renamed the file, thanks a lot Mr.Ken,
:(( it odnt work for me still i dont know why i cant see the vs7jit thingy
i tried the last one but it didnt work :((
The pop up says:Unhandled exception has occured in your application if you click continue the application will ignore tis eror and attempt to continue if you click quit the application wll close immediately,But even if I click continue it doesent attempt to continue help!!!
I followed the advice by Kris above and it stopped the debugger. At first, with the nasty debugger dialog box still running and trying to stop the service, it took a minute for the service stopping function to process and sent up an error saying “service could not be stopped.” However, the process did enough to disable the debugger dialog box which I was able to finally close. Then I went back to services and rechecked “stop service” which it promptly was able to do now that there was no debugger dialog box to conntend with. Thanks Kris and all.
I came accross Kensfi.com through Google search when looking for enabling/disabling debegging. I not an expert in computers and its workings.
However, I was getting annoyed with pop up error messages asling me to disable debugging. In order to disable debugging, I followed the instruction below :
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VS7Debug\vs7jit.exe
On my computer the file reads :VS7DEBUG only. The vs7jit.exe bit is missing. Does this make any difference? Please help.

click start, click run, type in ‘services.msc’, right click ‘Machine Debug Manager’ left click stop.
Sorry ! I used the all tecniques and don´t have a solution ! and don´t start my program.. aplication… for this… when i click GetID … i see the message…
Help me !!
See the end of this message for details on invoking
debugging just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.
************** Texto de Exceção **************
System.ArgumentNullException: Value don´t be null
Name param : text……….
…etc………
To enable debugging just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the. Config this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the value
jitDebugging set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
I use XP in virtual box
thanks Rich Kellett yours is the one that worked for me!!!
