Hi! I get *** Fault tolerant heap shim applied to current process. This is usually due to previous crashes. *** message when running my application. How to fix this issue? Thanks.

Hi
When does it happen ?

Its a windows thing and can be disabled with
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FTH\Enabled ( full system)
or for an single app
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5020418/how-do-i-turn-off-the-fault-tolerant-heap

but normally it will go away if you completely clean the build folder and rebuild

However, if it happens when deployed, its another matter.

@mrjj

The issue was when launching application in release mode. I have tested it and it crashes few times but I have fixed the crashes and the *** Fault tolerant heap shim applied to current process. This is usually due to previous crashes. *** message appeared. But now it has been fixed.

I have deleted: Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers\your_application.exe entry.

Thanks.

Ok super. So it just had a record and hence showed the warning even after the app
stopped crashing.
Good you found the reason for the crash.
