Error with Visual LISP editor when debugging from .NET

When debugging from a .NET and running the VLIDE an error may occur. A work around is to change a registry setting. (MDA – Managed Debugging Assistants = 0). To set this registry key use a tool like regedit and set the string key "MDA" to 0.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework  

If you do not find the MDA string key, create one and set its value to 0.

You could also create a .reg file and set its contents as follows:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework]
"MDA"="0"

    Hi,
    It’s a lot better disabling just the specific issue in the MDA than work without MDA at all. In the case of Vlisp, the main issue is LoaderLock, and we just need to disable that exception (Debug Menu->Exceptions->MDA->LoaderLock). Check this from MS: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/d21c150d
