    Re: Debug as different user

    i wont be able to do that as the user does not have privileges of an administrator or debugger user.

    Why not create a user called Test that does have debug group privelidges but is the same as a normal user in every other respect.

    Re: Debug as different user

    I was trying to do that, i created a user with debug priveleges etc, but then there were errors when the user was opening the project as they werent a member of source safe.

    it takes a lot of messing

    Re: Debug as different user

    Create your executable, then using "Run As" execute it under the normal user's credentials. Once it starts, open an instance of VS and attach the debugger to it.

    Good enough ?
