C# – Issue with Visual Studio debugger

cdebuggingvisual studio 2012visual-studio-2013

While debugging through the code, I am getting following error.

A debugger is attached to w3wp.exe but not configured to debug this unhandled exception. To debug this exception, detach the current
debugger.

I tried the fix from the following link, but it won't work for me.

It works fine when I use Visual Studio 2012, but it fails when using Visual Studio 2013. I tried repairing Visual Studio 2013, but It never worked.

Do anybody know the fix for it?

Thanks.

Try This

  • Go to Project Properties
  • Debug
  • Change Debug type to Mixed(managed and native) from managed only for both Application and Background process.

You may be encountering this issue if you have native C code (unmanaged) and C# (managed) code in the same project.

Changing the debug type to mixed makes debugging significantly slow.
