Visual Micro was working fine until I entered my license key

I was using the unregistered version (I think 1501.1) with VS 2013 fine until I decided to contribute and get a real license key.  Getting the license went fine, but now that I have applied it, I don't seem to be able to upload to my Arduino Uno.

The Micro Build output window shows the compilation and size info, but not the upload info.  I have tried both Debug and Release with the same results.  I have also updated to 1502.14 without any change.

What am I missing?  I looked at the various options and nothing jumped out at me.

I just noticed something.  When I actually changed some of the code in the sketch, it appeared to upload.

Is the plugin "smart" enough to realize the sketch hasn't changed, even though it was recompiled, and not actually upload?  The unregistered version was not.  IOW, every time I hit F5, the code was compiled and uploaded.

Hi,

No the plugin always uploads when requested unless you click a build command then a build without upload happens.

The license key has no affect except that if a debug session is running F5 does not build it continues to the next breakpoint instead.

Let's see how you get on, let us know if you hit the same problem again

Thanks

After I made the source change, it did upload.  I was in the "Release" configuration.  However, when I switched to the "Debug" configuration, it uploaded once, and then every time after (Release or Debug) hitting F5 would not upload.

BTW, this is VS 2013 Ultimate.

More information.

I just turned off:
Tools -> Visual Micro -> Automatic Debugging   and
Tools -> Visual Micro -> Tutorial Mode

and the uploading seems to be working every time I use F5.  (At least, so far.  I'll update if it does not.)
