Visual Studio 2017 debug freezes and aborts when calling DateTime.Now;


When in debugging, whenever I try to get a DateTime value in any way, such as:

camLogMessage.MsgDateTime = DateTime.Now;

if (myObj.Date < DateTime.Now.Date){}

DateTime creation = File.GetCreationTime(@"C:\test.txt");

Visual Studio freezes for a few seconds, then states that

The network connection to MYCOMPUTER has been lost. Debugging will be aborted.

and so it does.

If I set a property to a DateTime value in a QuickWatch window, everything goes well.

VS2017, .Net Framework 4.6.2, Platform target x64. I'm not using remote debugging, as far as I know.

What can that be?


Solution

  • So, disabling ReSharper fixed my problem. I don't know what combination of settings caused that (I've been using it for years with no problems), but I think it's time to say goodbye to RS.
