debug output error message.

Post by jassing »

I was debugging something unrelated and noticed when I start a PB exe, this pops up before any other output (and I have OutputDebugString_("Started") as the 1st line...

I have never seen this before - any ideas on what might be the cause? (it's a win64 exe)

[12688] FTH: (12688): *** Fault tolerant heap shim applied to current process. This is usually due to previous crashes. ***

(12688 is the PID of the exe -- this text appears nowhere in my source code) It has not previously crashed...


Any ideas?

I cleared it with "Rundll32.exe fthsvc.dll,FthSysprepSpecialize" but worried about why it popped up initially.

Seems to be a security-feature of Windows, check https://leereid.wordpress.com/2012/03/2 ... rant-heap/ .
Maybe your .exe crashed several times while developing?

That's just it -- the app didn't crash; in fact, it was the 4th time it was ever run...
