Visual Studio Debugger Failed to launch debug adapter

All of sudden I started getting this error;

If I change launchBrowser to false in launchSetting.json file,  I can successfully start the project, and then open the browser and navigate to the url manually.

launchBrowser: false

If I run project “without debugging” by pressing CTRL+F5, it runs fine but I loose debugging feature.

To turn off debugging and fix the problem follow this;

You can confirm this change;

The pain is gone.
