Unable to start debugging because the object invoked has disconnected from its clients
debugging, visual-studio
Solution
This may be a possible answer for the problem.
Some from the answer:
- Check which files were changed (why and how) after update from a source control engine
- Review the list of extensions and plugins. Try to disable all or some of them
- Close Visual Studio and kill all the development processes: `devenv, mspdbsrv, vcpkgsrv, msbuild, msvsmon, vshub, vstest` etc
- Remove `.suo, .ncb, .VC.db, .VC.VC.opendb` files of the solution as well as `.vs` directory, which sometimes cause problems
- Remove project setting files, sort of `YourProjectName.vcproj.DOMAINNAME.LOGINNAME.user` or `YourProjectName.csproj.user`. The setting file name depends on a project kind you use
- Run `"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" /setup` or `"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" /setup` for x64 environment
Problem
I'm running Visual Studio 2012 (version 11.0.61030.00 update 4). When debugging a local console application I get the following error when I start debugging (F5): ``` --------------------------- Microsoft Visual Studio --------------------------- Error while trying to run project: Unable to start debugging. The object invoked has disconnected from its clients. --------------------------- OK --------------------------- ``` This only happens if I leave visual studio alone without debugging for a couple minutes. If I close visual studio and re-open the error goes away (until I leave it untouched for another couple of minutes). Has anyone experienced this? I can't find any threads of other people experiencing it.
