I'm trying to use Visual Studio 2017 for JavaScript. But when I try to run with F5 I get "Debugger agent is not enabled". I have read some solutions on SO but none seem to work and some don't apply.

Can someone help me get over this error?

  • Save us all some time by helping us not repeat what you've already tried. What did you try and what didn't work? –  Jan 02 '18 at 22:00
  • I tried these "solutions": 1. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31813562/debugger-agent-is-not-enabled 2.https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37167051/debugger-agent-is-not-enabled-ionic-2-app-with-visual-studio-2015 3.https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45106297/typescript-vs2017-stops-at-first-line-error-debugger-agent-is-not-enabled – Eddy Jan 03 '18 at 14:12
  • #2 doesn't even have an answer. Okay, and what happened when you tried #1? *What* answer did you try? *Be specific*, don't just link to other questions on SO and expect that answers anything. Put a little effort into your question. If the only information you can provide us is "i tried that and it didn't work", that isn't informative. –  Jan 03 '18 at 14:18
  • I was hoping someone had run into this too and would have a good answer. To be more specific, non of the hits gave proper information on the issue. – eddyq Jan 03 '18 at 14:29
  • I gave the hits I found but none of them addressed my issue. You wanted to know what research I did and I gave that to you. There is probably a setting someplace, like in Chrome or Visual Studio, that I have not been able to find. Please help and don't criticize. – eddyq Jan 03 '18 at 14:34
  • @eddyq Asking for additional information *is* helping, and you are not free from criticism. Sorry, that isn't how this works. Why do you have two accounts? –  Jan 03 '18 at 18:52

Try this, it worked for me: Option 2: Install the Chrome Extension NIM (Node Inspector Manager): https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nim-node-inspector-manage/gnhhdgbaldcilmgcpfddgdbkhjohddkj

Here is more information: https://nodejs.org/en/docs/inspector/
