Unable to start debugging - Visual Studio 2012

"Unable to start debugging 'C:\Windows\System32\WWAHost.exe'. The Microsoft Visual Studio Remote Debugging Monitor (MSVSMON.EXE) does not appear to be running on the remote computer. This may be because a firewall is preventing communication to the remote computer. Please see Help for assistance on configuring remote debugging."

Searched for similar posts, but didn't found one. If duplicate just inform. I am not trying to connect to any remote machine. Just testing on my local machine. Is there any way to solve this issue. (I'm using Windows 8 Enterprise 64-bit, just a javascript project)

I had the same problem. I fixed it by changing properties/compile/target platform to x86 instead of Any CPU. It solved the problem in my case. Hope it helps.
