    <p>Unfortunately this one didn't work for me.  I do have Avast
      Antivirus, but adding Lazarus both as an exception and as an
      allowed app failed to fix the problem.  I've kept the entries
      present though.</p>

          everyone,<br>
          <br>
          This is likely due to something peculiar in my configuration
          that I <br>
          haven't found yet, but I can't be sure.  I'm having problems
          in that the <br>
          latest Lazarus trunk won't create a console window when I'm
          running the <br>
          compiler source in the debugger.  I tried to jury-rig it to
          create its <br>
          own using the AllocConsole() Windows API function as a
          temporary <br>
          workaround, but it failed with an "access denied" error.  The
          little I <br>
          could find on that error implies that the application already
          has a <br>
          console, but it's not displayed. Anyone got any ideas?<br>
