"cannot load PDB" when running Visual-D project

When trying to run a simple "Hello world" D lang code snippet in Visual Studio (using the visual-d plugin), I see the following error in the logs:

D:\mydata\ConsoleApp\ConsoleApp\Debug\ConsoleApp.pdb: cannot load PDB helper DLL

where ConsoleApp is the name of my app. As per this thread, the problem should have been fixed in the v0.3.38-1 installer but I still see this issue. I'm using Windows 8.1 with Visual Studio Standalone/Integrated Shell.

Any help is making this run would be much appreciated.

I switched to the Mago debugger as mentioned on this wiki page and the error went away. Since I just want to get a feel of the language, not using the "native" debugging format doesn't bother me a lot, so all is well now.

If the latest VisualD installed does not fix the problem, then try the following fix http://stuff.benjamin-thaut.de/D/visualdfix.reg by Benjamin Thaut. Here is what what he wrote on the NG: "This is for visual studio 2010. If you need it for a different version you have to open it with a text editor and change "10.0" to "11.0" for 2012 and "12.0" for 2013."
