title: Can't get the inner exception of an exception in Visual Studio 2019
body: <p>I am getting an exception from a call to Entity Framework which says I have to see the inner exception. I added a try/catch statement like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>try {
  //call to EF in a library
  }
  catch (Exception ex)
  {
  int = 0:  //breakpoint here
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and when I tried to look at ex, this is what I got. Why are all the properties blank like this? It's the same issue in the locals window. Seems like VS can't get the details for the exception or something. I am using Visual Studio 2019 16.3.1.</p>
