JIT debugging *.

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

application or computer (machine.config) must have the

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

The application must also be compiled with debugging

permit.

For example:

When JIT debugging is enabled, an unhandled exception

will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Can you help me solve this problem or should I uninstall all updates one by one?

Thank you.

I think my problem is resolved. The error refers to a program called StartUp Defender that starts with windows, if I allow it. I stopped to start today and I didn't have the error popups at all today. Fingers are crossed!
