This has worked for me without issue for years, in my several versions of both Commercial and Community. I do have to save the debugger script, and then quit LC for the changes to stick, but never see the errors you do.

It seems I have a permission issue. Here's what I do: Open Message Box, Show Front Scripts, Open stack "revDebugger" Go to the function "revDebuggerValidGlobalNames" and add the following line: filter tGlobalsRaw without "grev*" This works beautifully but it can't be saved. If I try saving the "revDebugger" stack from the message box I get the error: can't open stack backup file If I quit I'm prompted to save changes to "revDebugger", but when I choose to do so I get a longer error: Can't save stack revDebugger due to an error Can't open stack backup file Check the file path, and make sure you have sufficient permissions. If I try a "save as" and then replace the existing support file with the new one it completely corrupts my installation of Livecode forcing me to download and re-install. Is there something going on with my "permissions" that I can set to allow the saving of changes to the "revDebugger" stack?
