Visual Studio Debugging - Breakpoint Set but Yet Bound

Question

I am having issues trying to Debug in Visual Studio 2017. I have a web application project and have set some breakpoints in my *.aspx.vb code pages. The breakpoints set just fine with the Red Circle indicator. But when I start the debugger, I get the warning that the Breakpoint will not currently be hit. Breakpoint set but not yet bound.

I cannot figure out how to fix this? What is wrong?

Hello @Ray Pietrzak ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

Please try following steps to troubleshoot:

1). Build > Clean Solution and then restart Visual Studio and rebuild your project, after that debug again.

2). Please go to your solution folder and delete(or rename) the “obj”, “bin” and the hidden “.vs” folder, restart Visual Studio and then rebuild your solution.

3). Check if you have chosen the “Debug” mode and if you have many other projects in this solution, make sure you have set the “Set as Startup Project” for the corresponding project.

Best Regards,
Tianyu

With all the cleaning, try to clear the Temporary ASP .Net files folder in Windows/Microsoft Net/Framework and Framework64. My issue of break point not binding goes away when I clear these temp files and specially when I clear the browser's Cache. No need to uncheck Just My code option in the Options ==> Debug ...
