Visual studio 2012 - locals have disappeared

Question

While debugging VS2012 I have found that I can no longer access variable values:

• The Locals window does not show anything (pictured below).
• The Watch

Answer 1

I had the same problem with Visual Studio 2013 Update 5 on Windows 10 while using remote debugging.

According to another SO question the locals/variables are broken in the remote debugging tools.

I haven't found a solution yet, but I'm going to switch to Visual Studio 2015 so I haven't really been looking for it either...
