Visual Studio Professional 2012 svhost32.exe error running hello world

Question

I am new to Microsoft Visual Studio and have just installed Visual Studio 2012 on my computer. I am trying to run a simple hello world console application. This is my code:

using System;


namespace HelloWorld
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!");
        }
    }
}

when I run this either for debug or release it correctly displays the hello world in the console but then promptly gives me this error message: "vshost32.exe has stopped working" after researching the problem I figured out how to go into properties and unselect "Enable the visual Studio hosting process" which is what seemed to fix the problem for other people. But then when I try to run the code again all I get is "HelloWorld has stopped working". Does anyone have any ideas of what I could try next? Most solutions for this problem had to do with errors in peoples code but that seems a little hard to imagine since its hello world.

when I enable native code debugging this is the error message that I get:

First-chance exception at 0x77e3f9f2 in HelloWorld.exe: 0xC0000008: An invalid handle was specified.

Answer 1

I was looking at your stack trace and I took the first line that jumped out at me as something was wrong.

[Frames below may be incorrect and/or missing, no symbols loaded for ntdll.dll]

I searched Google and found the answer to the Question on [Frames below may be incorrect and/or missing, no symbols loaded for ntdll.dll]

I don't know if this will work or if you need to go through and try to load the Debugging symbols like this answer suggests

I tried to run this exact same code on my machine using VS2010 and had no issues.
