I found an odd bug in the UI while the debugger is running, Find References is also running, and the "stop debugging" button is pressed. Minor, but seemed worth reporting. This is build 2023, VS 2012.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start a large C++ program in the debugger.
2. Place the cursor over a symbol which is used in many source files.
3. Select VAssistX->Find References.
4. While the Find References search is still running, push the Stop Debugging toolbar button. The search is cancelled, but the program remains running.
5. Push the Stop Debugging toolbar button again. The button is disabled, and the program remains running.

Once the cursor is moved again, the Stop Debugging button is reenabled, and a third press correctly stops the debugger.

I was able to reproduce the problem using your steps:

case=60725

The workaround is to give the editor focus (e.g. by clicking over the source) so "stop debugging" icon or shift+F5 will work.
