asp.net - visual studio debug error unable to start program no more files -

system info: win 7 x64 sp 1, ie 10, visual studio 2010

i've been researching error over.

visual studio debug error:

"unable start program (file path) no more files" 

this started installation of internet explorer 10 , happening across web projects within visual studio 2010.

i've tried possible solutions (but not vs re-installs) registry entries (http://forums.asp.net/t/1891930.aspx/1), ie 10 reinstall (fail...won't let me reinstall due existing version) switching default launch browser (in visual studio, select different browser such chrome default browser in "browse with..." option in project..it works pain in rear) 1 thing tried making me wonder if there issue how ie 10 launched came following experiment:

basically did same process of changing default browser except picked ie 10 x86 version manually in "browse with..." option, set default , ran project. voila, works no issues.

my next step confirm default ie option in "browse with...". found articles such (http://lennybacon.com/post/2010/08/22/rehowtochangethedefaultbrowserinvisualstudioprogrammatically) put me on path find out settings visual studios default browser settings.

i checked browser.xml file , looked ok including registry entry pointing it. i'm unable check version of browser since ms, in it's infinite wisdom decided not show info in -> or anywhere else. gut feeling default ie 10 being launched x64 bit version.

does know? 1) how can confirm default version of ie 10 launched since afore methods have not worked , 2) why (i'm assuming) ie 10 x64 launch vs. defined ie 10 x86 referenced version in browser.xml file?

thanks , help. dave

update:

so doing continual testing, seems after ran process change default browser settings in both registry , browser.xml file, upon launching debug process in visual studio 2010, automatically reverted original default broswer settings launch x64 version of ie 10. in case, seems issue (error above) lies in fact debugging in visual studio 2010 using x64 browsers cause error. no recourse, ended removing ie 10 windows features , going through painful process of getting ie 9 on system, can debug using ie (x86).

it seems ms not pursuing fixes issue of default browser in vs 2010 i've read. there in browser tools i've seen default browser setting changes don't want bother it/don't trust work.

hopfully helps others dealing same pain have endured...

thanks

when ran problem (using ie 11) noticed iexplore open hundred times in task manager. after killing them able open project fine.

since then, have made .bat file code: taskkill /f /im iexplore.exe /t

so run .bat when error. (alternatively run code cmd)
