    When i create a .cpp file, and i try to use "StepInto", "StepOver", or "Debug" i get a error stating "Access Deined" and even though i right click the icon and run visual studio as Admin it still don't work. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Are you running Vista? Do you have VS SP1 installed? And the Vista hotfix?

    Is it Visual Studio itself that gives you access denied, or is it the program you're debugging?

    Try placing a breakpoint on the first line of main() and start debugging.

    Also, I seem to recall that depending on project settings you might not be able to debug. How did you create your project?
    Try making a Win32 Console project (I believe it was the empty project that wasn't configured properly for debugging)
