So basically I had set a breakpoint on a WINAPI function call. When I tried to run the program and step over the breakpoint, the program exits with the popup window: unknown exception code 6F4 (exc.code 6f4, tid 704). The function does not return any value as the program exits before that happens, so I can't tell if the function has returned a successful error code or not. What is this exception code, and why did this happen?

Can you try to set the same breakpoint in x64dbg or in windbg and see if there is the same exception ? Try also to use an hardware breakpoint.– TonyCommented Feb 18, 2021 at 11:01
