Re: Tracing in Visual Studio 2010 ProDate:
Wed, May 23, 2012 7:12:27 pmWell, this sounds like a big brother bug to me. I don't use Visual
Studio so I can't check it out. But just for the heck of it, I'd try
turning off apps and see if you still have the same problem. Then I'd
take Window-Eyes out of the SysTray so you'd have it in the Alt-Tab
order and see if you can get at it that way. Otherwise I haven't a clue
as to what would be blocking access to it and locking things up.
Hth,
Tom

Studio so I can't check it out. But just for the heck of it, I'd try
turning off apps and see if you still have the same problem. Then I'd
take Window-Eyes out of the SysTray so you'd have it in the Alt-Tab
order and see if you can get at it that way. Otherwise I haven't a clue
as to what would be blocking access to it and locking things up.
