Windows launching in Debug Mode problem

This was a bug fixed in 2020r2 <https://xojo.com/issue/61634>

Unfortunately it wont be fixed in older versions of the IDE so your options are:

  1. Change your default browser to firefox as that doesn’t seem to care about the security change that was implemented by chromium which caused this issue in the first place
  2. Add a button to your browser’s toolbar to take you to http//127.0.0.1:8080/ that you click after the browser opens
  3. Change to a newer version of the IDE >= 2020r2
  4. Make a change to your registry that will decrease the security on your computer to circumvent that change introduced by chromium.

See Cannot run from IDE - wrong URL - 2020 R1.1, R1.2 - #48 by anon20074439 for a little explanation of the issue and the whole thread for the registry change if you want to go that way.
