How to Remove Another Debugger So That Visual Studio Can Debug Script

How to Remove Another Debugger So That Visual Studio Can Debug Script

So I messed up and installed a crappy scripting program to debug VBscript before I realized that it could be done with VS.

So now, despite uninstalling the other debugger (seems it did not uninstall correctly), I receive the following error message: "another debugger has registered itself as the Just-In-Time debugger" and will not allow me to enable script debugging in VS.

So looking into the issue it seems that the error is in the windows register somewhere but despite me trying a few things I have not found a way to fix this. I have tried to do the VS repair a few times after making Reg changes with no luck.

I feeling like this should be a easy thing but can't seems to find the answer anywhere, help if you can.
