How Do I See The Registers Window ? (x64, Win'7)
-
I just used the search feature on codeproject in an attempt to find this phrase, "x64 register window visual studio" Found nothing, so I thought I would ask here. I'm brand new to C++ under Visual Studio, going through some tutorials, and the instructor's register window just automatically opens up to show him the 64 bit registers. Mine won't. I went back through previous lessons and didn't see where he shows how to make the reg window appear. Can someone instruct me on what to do, where to click, etc., in order to view the registers window ? (flags would also be nice) The environment is basically like this... -- Win'7 -- x64 machine -- Visual Studio 2010 -- Visual Studio 2012

I believe you also need to turn on "Enable address level debugging" under Tools -> Options -> Debugging.

In debug mode when stopped on a breakpoint go to the menu and select Debug -> Windows, for the other windows that can be displayed.
Thanks Richard. Very simple answer, straight to the point, and best of all: it works. Thank you.

Dave KreskowiakCorrect, Dave. I asked this exact same question over on Stack Overflow, and got that part of the answer which you just gave. i.e., Tools -> Options -> Debugging -> General -> Enable address level debugging That's all they told me, without mentioning the part about where the menu stuff was for actually making it happen. Sheesh. Anyway, I have a register window in Visual Studio, thanks to you two guys. Thanks a ton.
