title: Visual Studio remote debugger "invalid access to memory location" feature
body: <p>This is another attempt to resolve the problem stated <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13878778/visual-studio-2012-remote-debugging">here</a>. Unfortunately the topic was closed without adequate resolution found, as apparently the original poster had issues with symbols, not with visual studio problem itself.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Problem Statement:</strong> Visual Studio 2012 (and 2010 for the same matter) will stop attaching to remote process after a period of time with "invalid access to memory location". Restarting Visual Studio fixes the problem.</p>
  
  <p>I am currently on VS2012 update 3, but the issue also occured in RTM, and all intermediate updates.</p>
  
  <p>The <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13878778/visual-studio-2012-remote-debugging">referenced thread</a> suggests patching operating system with <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2588507" rel="noreferrer">hotfix 2588507</a>, however I am unable to apply it, because it seems to be not downloadable, possibly because of intermittent issue.</p>
  
  <p>Have anybody successfully addressed this problem and if yes then how?</p>
