I have several scripts that I have written and tested with ExtendScript Toolkit. When my users run the scripts, they access them from the Scripts palette. With a couple of the scripts, the users say that ExtendScript sometimes launches. These scripts have Try/Catch blocks in certain locations. If my script throws an error in one of these blocks, does ExtendScript automatically launch? I am having difficulty duplicating the problem here.

A related question: Is there any way to suppress the launching of ExtendScript when an error occurs? Thank you very much.

Search the scripts for $.writeln -- that writes to the JS console and will cause ESTK to launch. try/catch by itself won't trigger ESTK.
