It's reproducible on both XP and Vista Steps to reproduce: - create any application which waits for input (e.g. Quote) - clean and build it - run application from IDE - try to attach to the application process Result: Attempt fails with message "The executable associated with the selected project does not match the selected process ID" Created an attachment (id=72688) Attempting to attach to Quote on Vista see also issue #147788
It's a potential showstopper for NB 6.5 FCS
It worked fine some time ago. So it can be treated as a regression.

The second part of this issue is a MSYS/MinGW compatibility. Now we can not attach to process if the project uses MinGW tools collection. MSYS processes are just invisible in Attach dialog. Probably we need to create a separate issue for this.
A new issue #151610 "Can not attach to MinGW project on Windows" has been created.
