What does this error mean? I am currently using Windows 8 and installed Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate. The first time I installed vs2012 there were no errors. However, when I modified the settings in msconfig, which returned to its default after restarting the computer, there were compatiily issues with vs2012. I don't know how to uninstall vs2012 because there are several applications included in the entire package of installing vs2012. I uninstalled VS2012 application but it was not effectively removed from my computer. I reinstalled vs 2012 using a different installer which enabled me to read my source codes. However when I ran the program this error occurred. How can I solve this error?

- Go to the project right click and select properties.
- Select 'Debug' tab on the left.
- Go to ‘Enable Debuggers’ on the bottom
- Check ‘Enable Native code debugging’ (or 'Enable unmanaged code debugging', depends on version) check box
- Run the project! =]

As suggested by answers to [error-while-trying-to-run-project-uncaught-exception-thrown-by-method-called-thr](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17146438/error-while-trying-to-run-project-uncaught-exception-thrown-by-method-called-thr) @GalDude33 response didn't work in all situations. I had to use VS2012 "repair" option through windows control panel to fix this issue. I didn't have to do a full re-install. – aitorpazos Apr 03 '16 at 14:34

1What if it is a web project? There is no "Debug" tab on the properties. – Blaise Jun 05 '17 at 15:23
