Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Install the Microsoft Python extension
  2. Debug the following python code:
for i in range(1,10):
    print(i)
  1. Add a break point to the print statement
  2. Try adding a variable in the watch window, for some reason it doesn't work

Clicking the + symbol once disables the + icon and nothing happens.

Reproduces without extensions: This is specific to the extension.
