Find out reason for automatic break

Question

Soon after I press the Play button, the Unity break button automatically gets activated: Unity gets into Pause mode:

I have attached the Unity debugger to my C# code, but Visual Studio doesn't break.

How could I find out the reason why Unity goes into Break mode?

Thank you!

Edit: Per request, here is the button before pressing Play:

And here is what the console looks like after the error occured:

Can you search your project to find whether any of your scripts or imported assets/libraries are setting EditorApplication.isPaused? — DMGregory

I had a Debug.Break(); statement in my code. Even though attached, the VS debugger didn't indicate where it stopped.

I'm not sure if that is bug. I was expecting VS to indicate where it stops if the debugger is attached.

I have asked the bug report team this question, and I will update my answer as soon as I hear back from them.

Try opening the console (bottom left). If the "pause on error" option is enabled and you get an error, it will pause the game. Maybe you had it on.
