Show "Debug options not enabled" while upgrade nRF Connect for VS Code Extenstion Pack

[ToothlessYY]

Hi I have updated th nRF Connect for VS Code Extension Pack to the newest version. But when I want to enter Debug in VSCODE, the error comes out. Before upgrade, the debug is ok.

Here are the version number of installed nRF Connect VS Code:

nRF Connect for VS Code  v2025.9.798 

nRF Connect for VS Code Extension Pack  v2025.4.4 

nRF DeviceTree  v2025.8.140 

nRF Kconfig  v2025.9.123

nRF Terminal  v2025.8.103

 

How can I fix it?

Hello,

This means that  that your build configuration is not set up with the necessary debug options. Please refer https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/nrf-connect-vscode/page/get_started/quick_debug.html#how-to-debug-an-application  and follow the steps mentioned to enable debugging.

Best Regards,

Swathy
