Since yesterday, Visual Studio 2008 will not start on my Windows 7 machine. Looking in the Windows Application Events log, I found 3 entries that explain what happens.
The 1st event is: Output: All functions of VisualSVN are disabled because your evaluation period is expired. You can purchase VisualSVN license at http://www.visualsvn.com/visualsvn/purchase/ Uninstalling VisualSVN 1.77 fixes the problem. So now I want to reinstall VisualSVN and enter my key. But when I reinstall VisualSVN, Visual Studio will not start. So I can't enter the key. It's a catch-22. Please advise. Below are the other two event descriptions: ---------------------------------------------------------------- Log Name: Application Source: Application Error Date: 11/26/2009 9:35:06 AM Event ID: 1000 Task Category: (100) Level: Error Keywords: Classic User: N/A Computer: Eagle Description: Faulting application name: devenv.exe, version: 9.0.30729.1, time stamp: 0x488f2b50 Faulting module name: vsdebug.dll, version: 9.0.30729.1, time stamp: 0x488f2c04 Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x0001915a Faulting process id: 0x1688 Faulting application start time: 0x01ca6ebec8323ff2 Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe Faulting module path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\Packages\Debugger\vsdebug.dll Report Id: 090a800f-dab2-11de-9524-00241d15bbd8 Event Xml: <Event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event";> <System> <Provider Name="Application Error" /> <EventID Qualifiers="0">1000</EventID> <Level>2</Level> <Task>100</Task> <Keywords>0x80000000000000</Keywords> <TimeCreated SystemTime="2009-11-26T17:35:06.000000000Z" /> <EventRecordID>6596</EventRecordID> <Channel>Application</Channel> <Computer>Eagle</Computer> <Security /> </System> <EventData> <Data>devenv.exe</Data> <Data>9.0.30729.1</Data> <Data>488f2b50</Data> <Data>vsdebug.dll</Data> <Data>9.0.30729.1</Data> <Data>488f2c04</Data> <Data>c0000005</Data> <Data>0001915a</Data> <Data>1688</Data> <Data>01ca6ebec8323ff2</Data> <Data>C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe</Data> <Data>C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\Packages\Debugger\vsdebug.dll</Data> <Data>090a800f-dab2-11de-9524-00241d15bbd8</Data> </EventData> </Event> ----------------------------------------------------------- Log Name: Application Source: Windows Error Reporting Date: 11/26/2009 9:35:08 AM Event ID: 1001 Task Category: None Level: Information Keywords: Classic User: N/A Computer: Eagle Description: Fault bucket , type 0 Event Name: APPCRASH Response: Not available Cab Id: 0 Problem signature: P1: devenv.exe P2: 9.0.30729.1 P3: 488f2b50 P4: vsdebug.dll P5: 9.0.30729.1 P6: 488f2c04 P7: c0000005 P8: 0001915a P9: P10: Attached files: These files may be available here: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\WER\ReportArchive \AppCrash_devenv.exe_a6e6f11895eb70f7d69869fefc7b8eb357b553_16e2641f Analysis symbol: Rechecking for solution: 0 Report Id: 090a800f-dab2-11de-9524-00241d15bbd8 Report Status: 0 Event Xml: <Event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event";> <System> <Provider Name="Windows Error Reporting" /> <EventID Qualifiers="0">1001</EventID> <Level>4</Level> <Task>0</Task> <Keywords>0x80000000000000</Keywords> <TimeCreated SystemTime="2009-11-26T17:35:08.000000000Z" /> <EventRecordID>6597</EventRecordID> <Channel>Application</Channel> <Computer>Eagle</Computer> <Security /> </System> <EventData> <Data> </Data> <Data>0</Data> <Data>APPCRASH</Data> <Data>Not available</Data> <Data>0</Data> <Data>devenv.exe</Data> <Data>9.0.30729.1</Data> <Data>488f2b50</Data> <Data>vsdebug.dll</Data> <Data>9.0.30729.1</Data> <Data>488f2c04</Data> <Data>c0000005</Data> <Data>0001915a</Data> <Data> </Data> <Data> </Data> <Data> </Data> <Data>C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\WER\ReportArchive \AppCrash_devenv.exe_a6e6f11895eb70f7d69869fefc7b8eb357b553_16e2641f</ Data> <Data> </Data> <Data>0</Data> <Data>090a800f-dab2-11de-9524-00241d15bbd8</Data> <Data>0</Data> </EventData> </Event>
