Remote debugging in visual studio: remote debugger does not support this edition of windows

Question

I am trying to remote debug my application in VMware workstation 7 and Visual studio 2010 ultimate. I habe several images (win 7 ultimate,vista,etc).

I am following this

Answer 1

No need to use VMWare features.

1. Inside the guest VM run the version of msvsmon that came with your copy of visual studio 2010 (A setup package for just the remote deubgging stuff can be found on the disc/image) (use x86 if debugging a 32-bit process or x64 if debugging 64-bit one ,Itanium if you need to laugh).

2. through the msvsmon GUI disable authentication and select allow any user to connect.

3. disable the firewall in the VM.

4. on the host machine you should be running visual studio 2010, under the debug dropdown select "attach to process..." and then on the window that pops up select remote from the dropdown that should say local or something initially, enter the IP address (should be private network IP i.e. 10.1.?.?) of the guest VM, alternatively use the server name displayed by the msvsmon GUI. You should get the process list for the guest and should only attach to any process that matches the version of msvsmon you ran (x86 or 64 ...or Itanium laugh).

NOTE: These are basic instructions to show you it definitely works but these instructions will only work for native code since managed requires a secure connection.
