I'm trying to get rid of this "Just-in-time" debugger program

[Trooth]

This is some program that came up when I installed some Microsoft software recently, like Visual Studio Something-Or-Other. I no longer want the program, and I THOUGHT I uninstalled it, but now this Just-in-time debugger keeps making TF2 crash on me. It happens consistently about 5 minutes after I've been in a server. No variation.

I looked in add/remove programs and there are about a million microsoft programs that weren't there before. So I have no idea what is or isn't safe to uninstall.

Here are two solutions I found via google that didn't work:

[I]Open Start>Control Panels>Internet Options: Advanced and activate (check box)

* Disable Script Debugging (Internet Explorer)
* Disable Script Debuggung (Other)[/I]

Those two were already checked when I looked.

[I]Open the registry (use regedit, Click Start, Run, Regedit).

Go to this key:

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

And set it to 0.[/I]

This was already set to 0.

So how do I rid my self of this curse of a program?

Oh and another thing I found from Google:

Some sites tell me to open Visual Studio and alter some settings to disable the debugger.

Well I don't have Visual Studio anymore. I uninstalled it. But the debugger is still there shitting up my computer. Should I reinstall Visual Studio to see if I can still make the change? I might try it, but it's a pain and takes a long-ass time to install.

The JIT debugger opens as a result of a program crashing, to attempt to debug it. It doesn't cause crashes and as far as I know it doesn't run until an application crashes.

If the dialog is annoying or you are certain it is causing the crashes you can disable it by following the instructions here: [url]http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/5hs4b7a6.aspx[/url]
The link includes instructions on disabling it from Visual Studio and by editing the registry (besides the keys you found)

Yeah but I don't [b]have[/b] Visual Studio anymore. It's uninstalled, so I can't edit its options

If this isn't what's causing the crashes, it must be one of the other millions of things that came along with Visual Studio. All I know is that TF2 didn't crash after 5 minutes [b]before[/b] I installed it

oh hold on I didn't see that bit about the registry. I'll give that a go

All right, this fixed it. I just played TF2 for an hour with no problems.
