Visual Studio crashes after debugging (Read 2202 times)

	I have a problem with the debug mode. When I open a project I can add new breakpoints and change the actions and so on without any problems. Then i download the program. And then the problems occur. Now, every try to change an option of a breakpoint causes a crash of Visual Studio. I tried many ways to change something without a crash but I had no success. I didn't move the windows of VS while debugging, I know there is an issue about that. I also updated VS and VM to the latest version.

	Not normally no, please follow the guide in yellow above so that we can see which debug system you are using.

	Thanks, Visual Micro is not involved when you change breakpoints (or at anytime in the code editor). That is all VS. I suggest trying to repair via the Help>Update menu and also confirm that "Tools>get Tools and Features>desktop C++" is enabled. (It should be automatically but ms have some problem sometimes since recent vs updates) If that does not resolve please post the list of extensions you have installed into vs, this is available via "Help>About" Diag wndow. Then zip your solution files and project folder files and email with link to this post or attach here. Thanks

	Repair via the Help>Update is not possible anymore. I had to open the Visual Studio Installer to start the repair. But this doesn't help. Desktop C++ i enabled and installed. The problem only occurs when the debugger has started. If I disconnect, before the debugger is completely running, I'm able to make changes. The info and the files are attached

	Thanks, there have been a few crashes that have crept into the last couple of VS2019 versions. Microsoft are reviewing. We will use your info to try to reproduce this one but we are not currently seeing same issue. One point is that the serial debugger does need recompile and re-upload after making breakpoint changes so stopping debug has to a happen anyway. Not ideal but maybe worth a note.

	After hours of trying several options I think I found the answer. I only installed the German language pack for Visual Studio. After installing the English language pack also, it works without any crash. Even when the language is German, there are no crashes anymore. And when i uninstall the English language pack, the crashes are back. Perhaps, someone could proof this with another languages.
