[RESOLVED] Debug control panel applet on Win7

[Mike Harnad]

Does anyone know how to debug a control panel applet on Win7? The typically way of using RunDLL32 does not appear to work. I can't set breakpoints and it appears that UAC looks upon RunDll32 as a security risk. The same method works fine on XP. Is there another mehtod to debug applets on Windows 7?

I have resolved this. I did not realize that the process I was debugging was a 32 bit process on 64 bit Win7. Therefore, I needed to start RunDll32 from SysWow64 and load the control panel applet from there also. Once I did this, I was able to set breakpoints and debug.
