How to debug without Visual Studio?

Python -> C ++ dll -> C # dll

I have a com interop C # dll that loads into a C ++ dll shell via a .tlb file generated in C # that will be used in a python project. When I start on my computer, it works fine, but when I start the computer that just formed, it gives:

WindowsError: exception code 0xe0434f4d

I have a C ++ distribution and .NET Framework 3.5 on a formatted computer.

How can I find out what is the correct exception on a computer that does not have a visual studio installed? How can I debug all this? I can not debug the dll myself, can I?

Note: everything works fine on my computer, so maybe there is some dll or file. I already used Dependency Walker to see if there is any dll, and nop!

Download Microsoft Debugging Tools for Windows. It contains the WinDbg debugger, which can also be used for debugging.

WinDbg's advantage over Visual Studio is that you have much lower-level commands for finding problems.

The disadvantage of WinDbg is that it is not user friendly (compared to Visual Studio).

You can use WinDbg or other useful applications to join the process, or even run the application in a debugger application.

Another really good software is OllyDbg .
