There could be several reasons why the Watch window is not displaying any output during the debugging process. Here are some possible solutions:
Check if the variables you are trying to watch are in scope. If the variables are out of scope, then they will not appear in the Watch window. To solve this, ensure that the code block containing the variables is in scope.
Ensure that the debugging symbols are loaded. If the debugging symbols are not loaded, then the Watch window will not display any output. To check if the debugging symbols are loaded, go to Debug > Windows > Modules, and ensure that the symbols are loaded for your application.
Check the configuration settings. It is possible that the Watch window is not displaying any output due to incorrect configuration settings. To troubleshoot this, go to Debug > Options > Debugging > General, and ensure that the "Enable property evaluation and other implicit function calls" checkbox is checked.
Reset the Visual Studio settings. If none of the above solutions work, then it may be necessary to reset the Visual Studio settings. To do this, go to Tools > Import and Export Settings > Reset all settings. This will reset all your Visual Studio settings to the default values.
By following these solutions, you should be able to resolve the issue of the Watch window not displaying any output during the debugging process.
