Overview

ExceptionBreaker is a VS extension that provides a way to fast-toggle breaking on all CLR exceptions.
It is available through both Debug toolbar and Debug top level menu.

Installation

The extension can be installed from Visual Studio Gallery.
Supported VS versions: 2010, 2012, 2013, 2015.

Options
