no local variables displayed

[joelyboy94]

Hi everyone

I've started programming with visual C++ 2012, however recently my debugger stopped showing local variables. I can see the call stack when it stops at a breakpoint, but no locals variables are displayed in watch 1 where they should be.

Apologies if I've done something incredibly stupid

All help is appreciated, thank you!

VS2012 is amazing... But I have no idea what's going wrong, maybe restore default settings?

I've tried using the installer to repair it, but that had no effect.

For future ref for anyone else,

I went on tools => import and export settings and reset to factory and that worked

thank you very much

Notice you had "Watch 1" selected when you should have had the local variables tab open. Just in case this happens again.

yes, I tried to get the "locals" tab back but it just stopped appearing next to watch 1 like it usually did. Not really sure what went wrong
