Why does my visual studio 2015 debug mode still running

Hello,

I left my Visual Studio 2015 running in debug mode overnight so it can index pdf files via a Lucene-search-engine App that I built. I left it running after work because this indexing task takes a very long time due to a high volume of files. This morning when I come to work, my VS2015 is still running in debug mode even though there is no error at all. At the top of the IDE, it still says "running". Just to make sure there is nothing wrong with the ongoing process, I added a few breakpoints to the code but nothing happened; it didn't stop at these breakpoints.

Does anyone know what is going on with it and why?

Thanks in advance.

What I have tried:

Try Ctrl-Alt-Pause and see where you end up in the code (or a-n-other message might appear)

Also it may be waiting for use input but that window may be "behind" the VS window

Thank you Chill, where is the "pause" key? Also, there is no user input needed on the app UI.

Always use Reply button to post comments/query to the concerned user, so that the user gets notified and respond to your text.

Will do next time. Sorry, I didn't see the reply button.

Okay, I think you meant the pause button "||" on the Debug menu bar. After pressing that button, a message states that "Your app has entered a break state, but no code is currently executing that is supported by the selected debug engine (e.g. only native runtime code is executing). Any ideas? Thank you.
