Surely the answer will be "you can't" or "use XP mode", but I'd like to know if it it possible.
The issue I have is that whenever I debug some application and hit a breakpoint, when I stop the debugger the debuggee remains stuck. It can't be killed, I can't attach another debugger (it says it is already being debugged). It won't go away until I close Visual C++.
This is hapenning on a Windows 7 64 bits install. VC has SP 6 installed.

You can try using Visual Studio 2008 with VC6 compiler. I recently blogged about this.
I developped a little fix for that. You just have to copy the file "ShiftF5Fix.dll" into "Common/MSDev98/AddIns/" et load it from Visual.
It's an hugly fix. If you modify your source file during debugging you have you answer "NO" to the poup displayed after you press "SHIFT+F5" to stop the process.

My previous fix was horrible.
Finally, I developped a new fix, working perfectly with the english version of Visual Studio 6. (SP6 I think)
You need to check the version of the file DM.dll located into "Common/MSDev98/Bin"
The correct version is 6.0.9782.0.

how to install: replace "Common/MSDev98/Bin/TLLOC.dll" by the version downloaded.
Best regards.
