Hello can’t use VS 2022 debugger anymore with SU12, on previous SU it was ok.
- both dll and wasm module are in DEBUG mode as reported by WASM debug window
- option “fast wasm compilation” is checked - option “load modules asyncr”
is checked - when i connect to simulator exe file debug crashes with:
KittyHawkx64_PCSUB.pdb not loaded never happened before and can’t
understand the issue, obviously mentioned .pdb was not generated by VS.

Did you start the sim with
“-AllowDebugger”? BuffyGC

@BuffyGC @MarioMotta I am trying to add the -AllowDebugger option to
FlightSimulator.exe, but I am unable, it is an app, how you guys did this?
silly me but I am stuck on this step lol Best, Raul

I think you are using the Store/Game Pass version. Create a link on your
desktop with the following content:

cmd.exe /C start shell:AppsFolder\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App -AllowDebugger

@Boris I was struggling to understand how to add the “AllowDebugger” flag.
Perhaps adding this to the documentation will help other devs to avoid getting
stuck like I was?

  1. cmd.exe /C start shell:AppsFolder\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App -AllowDebugger
