This has been exhausting as there was absolutely no change in code.
The Visual studio got updated and it happened.
From what knowlege i have, a software upgrade is supposed to fix things know break already working things.
Can somebody give me an idea as to what is going on?

I tried everything, including uninstalling VSfM completely and installing again, nothing works.
I'm using macbook pro m1. -
