Debug Stop All

Stop all active debug sessions with a single click or keyboard shortcut.

Features

  • Debug toolbar button — Appears in the debug toolbar when debugging, right next to the built-in stop button
  • Command palette — Search "Debug: Stop All" in the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P)
  • Keyboard shortcut — Ctrl+Shift+F11 (Cmd+Shift+F11 on Mac)

Why?

VS Code's built-in stop button only stops the currently focused debug session. When running compound launch configurations or multiple sessions (e.g. a frontend and backend), you have to stop each one individually. This extension adds a single action to stop them all at once.

Especially useful if you use compound debug configurations in your launch.json — one click to tear down the entire stack.

Usage

  1. Start two or more debug sessions
  2. Click the stop-all button in the debug toolbar, use the command palette, or press Ctrl+Shift+F11
  3. All debug sessions are terminated
