@alkampfergit : Thanks for sharing, would you be able to tell us a little more about the kind of test project you are trying to debug so it is easier to repro it on our end. Alternatively, if you wouldn't mind sharing some diagnostic logs with us that would be fantastic as well. Here is how you can enable these diagnostic logs.

I was not able to repro with a C# MSTest Project.

@alkampfergit could you check if I am missing a step or could you provide repro project ?

Hi, actually the problem was due to a big test project with lots of tests that has some weirdness in the .csproj file. After cleaning up the .csproj file debugger started to work again. Actually the project contains a lot of section where files were excluded and then included again in the project (test project file was born 10 years ago).

I think that visual studio messed up with the file, after removing all the include/Exclude everything starts working again.
