Re: RDP 8.5 and Service Entry points - reset of a program/debug

Another thing to watch for is service programs. You might need to end the session and start a fresh one if the service program is already loaded. Otherwise you have an SEP on the new object, but are running the old object.

That usually works fine for me.

HOWEVER, sometimes I get a message indicating that the SEP is invalid and that the program is removed from the list of programs being debugged.
