On xp, every time a process would crash the OS would pop up a dialog asking if I would like to debug the process. I cant find a way to enable this functionality on the later version of windows. So to reiterate, I want to attach a debugger to a native process that’s auto broken on a crash.

Does anyone know how to get this done?

    Enable Just-In-Time debugging.

    Edit: since that doesn’t work for you, some additional suggestions –

    • Make sure the AeDebug registry key values are correct.
    • Setup WER to create full crash dumps, and debug the dumps.
    • Not sure about this, but is it possible your user doesn’t have debug permissions? Have never checked that, but I assume this would prevent that user from being offered a chance to debug the process (and even if you do, UAC might circumvent them – but I don’t know this for a fact).
