UPDATE

After trying to run the devenv /safemode as was suggested in the comments I am getting:

'devenv' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Solution

  • Why does the piece of code gets circled (i.e. outlined) in Visual Studio 2019?

    This behavior is not reflected by VS debug itself, and thanks to NiceWork's help. l am afraid this behavior is controlled by third-party extensions and from the picture you provided.

    You can try to use devenv /safemode(remember to run in Developer Command Prompt) to run your VS to test whether this behavior still persists. If this does not happen, it proves that this behavior is controlled by extensions.

    If you want to want this behavior to go away, you can disable extensions one by one to locate which extension is.

    Hope it could help you.
