131.0.2903.51 version Devtools can't see the breakpoints

Question

for the development, i need to see the breakpoint(means that red point) in sources , but after i upgrade to 131.0.2903.51version , i cant see that red breakpoint anymore. please fix it.

Answer 1

A temporary solution: switch to Dark theme. If u're used to use the Light theme, then switch to Light theme.After switch to Dark theme, the problem goes away.

Answer 2

So wierd.

I switched to the dark mode and saw the breakpoint and then I switched back to light mode and the breakpoint came back too.

I pity on the person on the QA that will have to reproduce the bug and the person in the development team that will have to fix it 😂

update: it worked for a second and that's it, no breakpoint.

I will have to change to dark mode

Answer 3

I got the problems too. And i realise, if you guy wants to use break point as normal can try use Dark Theme. The problem only happen with light theme

Answer 4

To those of you who can't afford to wait until a fix is released, here's a solution to roll back to the latest Edge version that didn't have the bug.

See this procedure:

https://www.browserstack.com/guide/test-old-version-of-edge#:~:text=Visit%20the%20Microsoft%20Edge%20for,%2C%20macOS%2C%20etc.).

Go get the version 130.0.2849.99 here:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/edge/business/download?form=MA13H4

In your download folder, open cmd.exe in admin mode and execute this to prevent auto-updates (temporarily solution only - you must restore later - not sure how yet)

Note: this is for the 64-bit OS only. For 32-bit, follow instructions in page.

netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="Disable Edge Updates" dir=out action=block program="C:\Program Files\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate\MicrosoftEdgeUpdate.exe"

Then run the roll-back using this command:

msiexec /I MicrosoftEdgeEnterpriseX64.msi ALLOWDOWNGRADE=1

Start Edge and validate version.

I can't believe such a critical functionality has been so broken and made its way through an official release! Is anybody using Edge at all at Microsoft?! Anybody doing at least one little test before doing a release?

Answer 5

I have the same issue.
The invisible breakpoints do still get hit, and adding a breakpoint makes the line of code appear indented. This is helpful until there is a resolution to actually see the breakpoints.
