'cannot find or open the pdb file' Visual Studio C++ 2013

No problem. You're running your code under the debugger, and the debugger is telling you that it doesn't have debugging information for the system libraries.

If you really need that (usually for stack traces), you can download it from Microsoft's symbol servers, but for now you don't need to worry.


It worked for me. Go to Tools-> Options -> Debugger -> Native and check the Load DLL exports. Hope this helps


Working with VS 2013. Try the following

Tools -> Options -> Debugging -> Output Window -> Module Load Messages -> Off

It will disable the display of modules loaded.


Try go to Tools->Options->Debugging->Symbols and select checkbox "Microsoft Symbol Servers", Visual Studio will download PDBs automatically.

PDB is a debug information file used by Visual Studio. These are system DLLs, which you don't have debug symbols for.[...]
