VS2010 - IntelliTrace is not available. Why?

If you get this error

clip_image002[4]

No symbols are loaded for any call stack frame. The source code cannot be displayed.
Calistack Location: AvalonCalculator2.ex&WPFCalcutator.Windowl .CheckResult(double d = {unknown})
IntelliTrace Time Context: Exception: Thrown: “Illegal value” (“System.Exception”)

on trying to open an IntelliTrace log, with a WPF application

Make sure to switch your WPF application to 32bit (x86) in the “Configuration Manager”

Figure: Sorry I had to hide this code, it is so ugly and smelly… It comes from this WPF calculator on MSDN see yourself if you want

 

We finally can do Historical Debugging … Nice!
And easily reproduce bug from our tester!

 

Thanks to Habib for this info: IntelliTrace is not avaiable

Now imagine this with an exception (=shot)
