VSCode debugger exception

Turns out you are partially correct. I had several breakpoints all over the code. I decided to remove all breakpoints and put just one where I wanted it. i was able to debug by starting the debug, that just runs but isn't really running. Then I hit the restart button mentioned above and it starts over and breaks in the idle loop infinite loop and when I hit run it hits my breakpoint.

This leads me to believe that the issue was one of my breakpoints being in a bad spot causing that exception.

No idea where or how so closing this ticket.

How do I hit even the first breakpoint? I am getting this exception right off the bat.

Normal behaviour for any of the single core MCU once softdevice/BT was enabled.

The softdevice will always fault due to the BT timing violation when the MCU was stopped for debugging.

Breakpoints will work when set before app start, but you will never be able to "continue".

The only exception is on the NRF5340 dual core MCU - because the debugger won't stop the network core here.
