Answer a question

I had been successfully debugging my angular app in Chrome via Chrome Debugger extension with automatic created settings. But [something] happened, and after one of my Windows 7 reboots I got unactive breakpoints. I suppose that it was affected by Windows PATH environment variable change. Why I thinking so? I got a message like "PATH has a bad value, do you want to fix it?" when Windows started. Unfortunately I can't reproduce my old PATH value. It can be a coincidence, but after this case debugging does not work.

No matter where a breakpoints are set: neither in the beginning of function or code block, nor in the middle of block, nor in a variable declaration, nor a variable operations. Breakpoints is not activated in noone of angular components: neither root component, nor others.

I use Google Chrome latest version. Interestingly, I installed the Debugger for Electron extension, which also starts up successfully, but the breakpoints are still not activated.

Other info:

launch.json:

    {
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [       
        {
            "type": "chrome",
            "request": "launch",
            "name": "Launch Chrome against localhost",
            "url": "http://localhost:4200",
            "webRoot": "${workspaceFolder}",
            "trace": true,
            "sourceMaps": true,
        },
        {
            "type": "electron",
            "request": "launch",
            "name": "Launch Electron",
            "sourceMaps": true,
            "appDir": "H:/opened-in-VSCode-folder",
        },
    ]
}

Project folder structure:

In launch.json also not works:

• changing "webRoot" to "${workspaceFolder}/src", "${workspaceFolder}\\src", "${workspaceFolder}/dist" and a lot of others variants.
• disabling or enabling "trace": true
• disabling or enabling "sourceMaps": true

Additional reboots of Chrome, Windows, VSCode, reinstalling Angular and Electron don't leads to success. Antivirus stopped. Windows "Last successful login" did not help.

Thanks for any info.

UPD 1: The only word "error" in the vscode-chrome-debug.txt log file:

... 
  {"id":5,"result":{}} [09:54:38.267 UTC] ← From target:
  {"error":{"code":-32601,"message":"'Runtime.run' wasn't found"},"id":6}
  [09:54:38.267 UTC] ← From target:
  ...

UPD 2: Reinstalling windows not helped too. I guess the problem in the packages versions.

I solved the problem by updating some software:

• Chrome: 69.0.3497.128
• Node.js: 10.11.0
• V8: 6.9.427.31
