options button in Serial Monitor disabled

I had debugging working a few weeks ago. Now the options button in Serial Monitor is disabled. Adding a break point has no effect and there is no selection in the OUTPUT window drop-down for debugging status.

1. I updated to options button in Serial Monitor disabled VERSION 1602.20.0
2. Followed the debugging tutorial, but got stuck at the options button in Serial Monitor.
3. I tried to reset VisualMicro to it's default but do not have this selection on the VM tab: click "Tools>Visual Micro>Reset User Interface"

P.S. I have both Visual Studio 2013 & 2015 installed because I am moving up tp 2015. The same problems occur in both versions. Could I have lost my paid status causing the debugger to be disabled?

Any suggestions?

Hi, please confirm that visual micro automatic debug is on.

Confirm if your toolbar is set to release or debug

Confirm what text appears in tools.options.visualmicro.license status

Thanks for the quick reply:
Hi, please confirm that visual micro automatic debug is on = unchecked so I turned it on.
Confirm if your toolbar is set to release or debug = yes
Confirm what text appears in tools.options.visualmicro.license status = registered
also
tools.options.visualmicro.Upload/Debug Active Code = false so I set this one to true.

Now it is actively debugging in the example code. 

Thanks
