Over the last two weeks my Visual Studio has been behaving strangely. Launching a simple console application in debug mode would take about 5 minutes for it to come up. Same thing happened when launching other projects in the solution in debug mode.
Today I cleaned up my Visual Studio configuration, rebooted my PC and the debugger launches instantly as expected. In case any of you are experiencing a similar issue, you can clean your visual studio by performing the following:
Tools -> Import and Export Settings…
Select “Reset all settings”, and click next.
Select “No, just reset settings”, and click next.
Choose your default collection of settings (Visual C# Development Settings)
Click Finish.
