“Unverified breakpoint” in Visual Studio Code with Chrome Debugger extension

Question

I am trying to debug my Typescript code in Visual Studio Code, using the Chrome Debugger extension, but I am getting the \"Unverified breakpoint\" message on my breakpoint,

Answer 1

After spending 3 precious hours of my life and going through many of the answers listed above, my problem was as simple as not having the following line in my php.ini:

xdebug.remote_autostart = 1

Before this I had already configured XDebug on my XAMPP, but my breakpoints simply wouldn't get hit. It was just that my debug server was not configured to be started automatically.

Hope this saves someone's day.
