Hello,

I have a debugging issue with VS code IDE.

Suddenly, i  cant debug with an error:

However, flashing board is working succesfully.

What am i supposed to do in order to fix this issue?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Thanos,

Thank you for reporting this. It might be readback protection. In that case erasing the cores could help. You may try the following:

west flash --recover

You could also try

nrfjprog --recover --coprocessor CP_NETWORKnrfjprog --recover

Please let us know how it goes, we recently received at least one similar case.

The recent update to the Cortex-Debug extension seems to cause this. 
At present, the workaround is to downgrade the Cortex-Debug extension to the previous version (v1.4.4).

Hi Thanos, thank you for posting this workaround. This is the recommended solution at the moment.
