    I am working with a ASP.NET 4.0 web application that has a pre-compiled portion, along with user controls that represent individual modules (think CMS). Running VS 2015 or 2013. On Windows 8.1, if my user control failed to build at run-time my development environment would exhibit typical behavior, which is a build exception, VS would break, give me the line number, I would fix the problem and move on, the application would continue to run.

    Under Windows 10 the application runs ok. But if I have a build error, anything as simple as a typo in a control ID name, or hit a breakpoint I get a 'System.Threading.ThreadAbortException' in unknown module, with no additional information. Application stops running.  I am basically dead in the water as far as debugging goes. Any thoughts?

    Hi,

    Here is the analysis of System.Threading.ThreadAbortException:

    System.Threading.ThreadAbortException is just plain weird. For instance, most exceptions happen because of something code did on its own thread: even asynchronous exceptions are caused by something your code did on the current thread. 

    More information: ThreadAbortException

    hope it helps you.

    With regards,

    Angie
