Summary
Introduced a new Exception Settings tool window in Visual Studio 2015, replacing the previous modal dialog. This window offers improved usability, searchability, and the ability to configure debugger behavior for exceptions. Features include filtering, adding custom exceptions, removing exceptions, resetting to defaults, and context menu options for 'Continue when unhandled in user code'. The post also clarifies that the debugger always breaks on unhandled exceptions and that the setting for user-unhandled exceptions is now under a context menu.
