I have a VB project with the EO.WebBrowser control version 3.0.97. When I try to run the project, nothing shows in the browser window and I get the error:
A first chance exception of type 'System.Exception' occurred in EO.WebBrowser.dll
Where can I find the actual error message?
I have a valid key for this version as well as the 2015 version but I can't find anywhere to download any of the older versions. NuGet can't find any of the files there.

Hi,

You would want to run it in a debugger and set the debugger to break on any exception. Then when it breaks the debugger would tell you the exact error message and stack trace. You can post those here and we can then go from there.

Thanks!

I created a blank project with just a form. Placed a WebControl and WebView on it and set the URL of the WebView to www.microsoft.com. Nothing shows and the error message displays. There isn't any code in the project, so how do I debug it? I can't find the original download from when I first installed and not able to find where I can download it again. Suggestions?

Hi,

You can either set Visual Studio to break on all exception and then check the call stack when it breaks into the debugger as soon as the exception occurs, or you can use a try catch block in your program's Main method to catch the exception and then examine the exception object. Both methods will help you to get the exception message as well as exception call stack.

Thanks!
