c# - a matching symbol file was not found in this folder

Question

I want to use debug symbols, but I am receiving the following error:

a matching symbol file was not found in this folder

What is this problem, and how to solve it?

Answer 1

One of the things I've ran into with was because debug was off on the project referenced where the code lives. In my case, I made a new configuration called "Developer" and by default debug was turned off.

1. Right click the project in question
2. Properties
3. Build
4. Advanced (right bottom corner)
5. Set Debug Info to full
6. Recompile
