Reset Lotus Notes JIT debugger after client is installed on Exchange 2000

It is recommended that you reset the Lotus Notes Just In Time (JIT) debugger setting after you set up a Lotus Notes client on an Exchange 2000 server. Doing so allows the Connectivity Controller to restart a Connector for Lotus Notes process if it failed to handle an exception and, therefore, to continue its normal operation. Lotus Notes Setup enables its utility "Quincy" to handle failed processes (crashes) that require operator intervention (to click OK) to end the failed process.

Warning Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that you reinstall the operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk.

You can disable the JIT Debugger with the following procedure:

1. Start Registry Editor.
2. Locate the following registry key:
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug
3. Select the Debugger value.
4. On the Edit menu, click String.
5. To use Dr. Watson, type drwtsn32.exe -p %ld -e %ld.
   
   Note An easier way to make Dr. Watson the default debugger by running this command:
   drwtsn32.exe -i
