Question

I just installed Visual Studio 2017. After starting an ASP.NET MVC application I get the message that chrome debugging in Visual Studio is enabled.

But my breakpoint

Answer 1

I had the same issue. I followed the instructions from the same post: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/webdev/2016/11/21/client-side-debugging-of-asp-net-projects-in-google-chrome/

I did the following in Visual Studio: Go to Tools -> Options -> Debugging -> General and turned off the setting "Enable JavaScript Debugging for ASP.NET (Chrome and IE)". Saved changes, then run the webpage.

After this, I noticed that Chrome was not showing the "Debug webpage" before loading my page. Then i closed my webpage and stopped the debugging session.

I re-enabled the "Enable Javascript Debugging for ASP.NET (Chrome and IE)" option, then run the webpage using IE, and it worked. The page stopped and the breakpoint showed up in my visual studio.
