Umm, did you look at the date when I posted this (hint: it was over 2 years ago)? Obviously things have changed since the days of Visual Studio 2005. I’m not pretending like I have all the answers. I just post things that might be useful at the time when I’m posting them. I may very well be missing something. That’s the beauty of blogs. People can build on other people’s findings and improve upon them. So maybe that would be something you could do?

Hey Rebecca,

No, I have not run into general breakpoint problems on Vista, however, you need to make sure you have Service Pack 1 for Visual Studio 2005 installed as well as the Visual Studio 2005 update for Windows Vista (in that order).

If you’re doing WPF / .NET Framework 3.0 stuff, you need the November 2006 CTP of the WPF extensions for Visual Studio as well. You can find links to all of these in the article by Tim Sneath that I linked to in the post.

I am having problems getting debug breakpoints to work in Visual Studio 2005 ever since I moved to Vista. Is it something with the new framework? Have you found anything else about this?

Thanks,
Rebecca
