how to disable Just in time debugger from visual studio

Uninstalled Visual studio and all its components from the add/remove programs. But now each time something crashes, it pops up the just-in-time-debugger which seems to be a remainder from visual studio...

How to remove it once VS is uninstalled ?

Found out that one can disable the popups by deleting the following keys

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug\Debugger

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\DbgManagedDebugger

But that doesnt remove it from the system ?

Answer: Apparently whether or not the deletion of the regkeys above totally "removes" VS just in time debugger, I found that re-enabling windows default, dr watson fixes the issues where my programs crashed because of VS leaving the debugger after uninstallation.

This can be done by following these instructions from microsoft.

Scroll down to the "To enable Dr. Watson"
