A first-chance exception that isn't followed by an unhandled exception is simply an exception that was thrown and caught inside the function you called. Various Windows API functions throw and catch exceptions internally under normal circumstance. They're nothing to be concerned about unless they're leaking out as unhandled exceptions, which would indicate that an unexpected exception occurred, in which case something is definitely amiss.' -cd |
