Attaching to a Running RTSS Process

You can attach the Visual Studio debugger to any running RTSS process on the local machine.

NOTE: You cannot use Task Manager or RtssKill to terminate a RTSS process that is being debugged.

NOTE: You cannot stop the Subsystem while RTSS processes are being debugged.

To attach to a running process:

1. On the Debug menu, select Attach to RTSS Process.

The Attach to RTSS Process dialog appears. This dialog displays the name and process ID for each running RTSS process. You can hover the mouse over the process name to display its path in a ToolTip. All processes to which you are currently attached, or that are currently being debugged, are grayed out.

2. Find the process you want to attach to from the Available Processes list, and then click Attach.

NOTE: Debugging multiple processes in one instance of Visual Studio is not recommended.
