When you are debugging an especially large application with lots of projects, the debugging skills matter more than ever, while troubleshooting/bug fixing. I’ve seen many developers who just can’t get to the exception, because they don’t step deep into the stack. There are 2 settings you can set, to make the debugging experience revealing and useful.

1. Set the Thrown checkbox on CLR exceptions (atleast that, you can do the rest of them too like win32 etc) in the Debug->Exceptions dialog in Visual Studio

2. Set the ‘Show External Code’ on the context menu in the Call stack tool window in Visual Studio
