I am not sure what the problem is. I go to this site, and download the standalone WinDbg. Then I go through the installer, and after about 5 minutes of installing it say that it can't finish installing there was an error. I am not really sure what else to do at this point. Help! Thanks.

If you have a prior installation of WinDbg or something else present such as Visual Studio, I've had it uninstall things part of the SDK to do an update to a present piece of software. You need to be sure you have things such previous versions of WinDbg and such uninstalled. It's a pain. If it's fresh, and you don't have a previous WinDbg, can I can a screenshot of the exact error?

I just looked at the link that I used and it say the Debugging tools for Windows XP with Windows 7. I need to read those things a little closer. Is the link you provided going to work for Windows 7? Thanks.

You need to uninstall via control panel all Visual C++ 2010 versions (x64 and x86) prior to 10.0.30319
