Atmel Studio 6 and Visual Studio 10 Express
-
Hi, after installation of Visual C# 2010 Express I installed Atmel Studio 6, which is based upon Visual Studio and installs Visual Studio 2010 Shell (Isolated). Usually, when I insert a Debugger.Launch() in my C# code, Visual C# 2010 Express should start and let me debug my application. However, Visual Studio 2010 Shell pops up with error message "Invalid license data. Reinstall is required." Can I change some Registry entries to start Visual Studio Express Launcher instead of Visual Studio 2010 Shell?

According to the documentation[^]: The Visual Studio Shell (integrated mode) seamlessly integrates with Visual Studio 2010 Professional and above. That means it probably does not work with the Express editions.

but anyhow the JIT Debugger knows whether to start the Visual Studio Shell or the Visual Studio Express Launcher. There must be some registry entry for this purpose...

Yes, but you only get it with a proper purchase of VS Professional or above, as stated in the link I gave you. Don't expect anyone here to help you break Microsoft's licence rules.

It was the Atmel Studio installation that messed my Visual C# Express Installation. Thus I won't break Microsoft's licence rules when I change my registry back to the state before the Atmel Installation... I thought somebody here knows where to search.
Sorry, I misunderstood what you were asking for. The quickest way to fix this would be to uninstall all three products and then re-install Visual Studio on its own. There is no easy way to figure out what registry keys are causing the problem.
