RESOLUTION

Warning Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that you reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk.
You can resolve this problem manually or programmatically. To resolve this problem manually, use the Registry Editor (Regedit.exe) to delete the following registry entry: To programmatically remove the registry entry, follow these steps:

1. Copy the following code:

   import com.ms.wfc.app.*;
   public class DeleteKey
   {
      public static void main(String args[])
      {
         String key = "Software\\Microsoft\\Java VM\\MSDEBUG";
         RegistryKey hklm = Registry.LOCAL_MACHINE;
         if (hklm.getSubKey(key) != null)
         {
            hklm.deleteSubKey(key);
            System.out.println("Deleted MSDEBUG key.");
         }
         else
         {
            System.out.println("MSDEBUG key was not present.");
         }
      }
   }
   					

2. At a command prompt, type the following command:

   jview DeleteKey

NOTE: Running the Visual J++ debugger again only adds this registry entry again.
