I'm debugging an app on a Windows 10 Mobile phone (Lumia 550) from Visual Studio on my PC. At some point the app simply closes on the phone and it shows the start screen.
The problem is that Visual Studio doesn't show anything. Not an exception, not even stops debugging. Though sometimes it does hang, usually not.
I created a breakpoint and it seems (but I'm not sure of that) to run fine until it tries to retu from an async method, perhaps to a caller that doesn't exist anymore. That's when the app crashes. I then removed the "await" and verified that the method is executed, and (on a separate run) - that the code after it is executed. Both run, and the crash is after them.
I realize that this is not enough for you to tell me why is the app crashing. That's not my question. My question is how is it that VS doesn't catch an exception and just keeps waiting for the device. And what can be done about that. The information I've given is because perhaps it might be pertinent.
