Hi,

 

I have windows xp media center edition 2002 Service Pack 2 on my

laptop. Since last few days whenever I try to access my hard drive

(Example : C:\Photos\USA\) I get unhandled exception. After I click

on OK button on pop up message, windows environment goes away for few

seconds (only desktop with no icons gets visible) and comes back. I

search on net but could not find any useful information. Here is error

message pop up.

 

---------------------------

Visual Studio Just-In-Time Debugger

---------------------------

An unhandled win32 exception occurred in explorer.exe [2972]. Just-In-

Time debugging this exception failed with the following error: No

installed debugger has Just-In-Time debugging enabled. In Visual

Studio, Just-In-Time debugging can be enabled from Tools/Options/

Debugging/Just-In-Time.

 

Check the documentation index for 'Just-in-time debugging, errors' for

more information.

---------------------------

OK

---------------------------

 

I don't have visual studio installed on my laptop.

Please help.

 

Thanks,

Jayesh Modha

Try my Windows Explorer Shell fix tool. Download it here

See if the VS7Debug folder is resident:

 

Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VS7Debug

 

If yes, then use this registry edit to eliminate the unhandled exception

AFTER you've exported the Winlogon subkey:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811191

 

Right click Winlogon and choose Export.

Name the .reg file Winlogon

IF any issue emerges after editing Winlogon, then just right click the

Winlogon.reg and choose Merge to restore it's data.

 

While you're editing the Shell data, suggest you check

Userinit. If it's data has anything besides the following

 

C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,

 

Please post what's been added. Malware likes to 'play' in that area.

Do you really want to trust someone that was banned from posting

directly to Microsoft Usenet servers, someone that has posted links to

pornographic materials on HIS WEBSITE, who's website is in the MVP HOST

Block list?

Chris, you've been posting my name in EVERY ONE OF YOUR POSTS ALL OVER

USENET, if you don't want to see me reply then stop posting my name in

your posts - it's that simple. Take my name out of your posts and I'll

stop replying to them. It's your choice, keep harassing me in every post

and I'll keep replying to defend my name.

Hi Movgreen,

 

This is pretty much near to the problem I have.

Only thing missing I don't the value of key "Shell" to value specified

in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811191

The solution posted is just change the value of "Shell" to

"explorer.exe".

I already have this value for "Shell" key.

The value of "Userinit" key is "C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,".

Don't know what to do now.

 

 

Thanks,

Jayesh Modha

The issue *may* be related to the .NET Framework that is native to MCE

2002, Jayesh, and not to Visual Studio.

Please see this:

 

How to repair the .NET Framework 1.0 that ships as part of the OS on

Media Center and Tablet PC

http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2005/09/01/459631.aspx

 

That's about the best I can come up with for this issue. There is a MCE

newsgroup you could post to if the above does not resolve this issue:

http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.windows.mediacenter&cat=en_US_101811f7-de11-4ece-976c-69321a303748&lang=en&cr=US
