Re: Debug issues

Update to problem.

With all of the machines that we have tried so far, closing the workbench and restarting miraculously cures the problem!!  Go figure.

I’d still like to know what the heck was going on …

Whole bunch of PCs - “works" as normal on some but exhibits the symptoms above on others.  ** “works” is an interesting word here because we have yet to have a machine where it all works as it should - but some do at least add the program to the SEP. When the program was called the dialog “Do you want to switch …” was displayed and then RDi went into non-responsive mode. Re-launched  - nothing (open source etc.) had been forgotten - but this time the setting of SEP and debug etc. worked perfectly.
