64-bit Windows 7 and SDBG.INI

I've been forced(!) to move to a new PC (windows7-64) and have transferred the development folders across to it, and recompiled everything OK, but when I try to run it under the debugger, I get an exception 'E06D7363'. On my previous 32-bit XP box, the fix for this was to add some lines to the c:\windows\SDBG.INI file:

IgnoreException-1=E06D7363

So, I've copied my SDBG.INI file across, but it hasn't made any difference. But, I realise, c:\windows may not be the correct folder to put the INI file in? If not, where should it go?

TIA

I think that it is probably still c:\Windows but there is an API function to get it namely GetWindowsDirectory. Also the environment variable windir should be the same.

The data is obtained using the API function GetPrivateProfileString and the default path (which is the Windows directory).

Yep, I use those functions for my code, but what does SDBG use?

On my PC it goes in: C:\Users\Robert\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Windows

write access to /windows (and /program files) is virtualised

Thanks Rob, that's the one!
