Why is my app not using scaffolded Identity pages?

Question

I have an app where I wish to focus on some Identity function enhancements, e.g. password generation etc. I have used "Add scaffolded item->Identity", and each Identity page seems complete and fine.

Yet when I put breakpoints e.g. in the ctor of Login.cshtml.cs, they are not hit, as if the compiled Identity pages are still running the show.

What have I missed in scaffolding out the pages?

Have you use authentication middleware ? ie : app.UseAuthentication(); inside configure method of startup ? — Diwas Poudel, Feb 05 '19 at 12:31
@DiwasPoudel Yes, I have `app.UseAuthentication();`, but the authentication does work anyway, just not using the scaffolded pages, like it's still using the Identity library code. — ProfK, Feb 06 '19 at 05:57

Please consider the followings:

Make sure that VS not switched to Release mode (instead of Debug mode)
If possible, run your VS as the admin, check it. Maybe you could try to change the platform target(Any CPU, X86, X64).
To make sure that the symbols are loaded for your app, I think you would get more information from the Output window, see Specify symbol (.pdb) and source files in the Visual Studio debugger (C#, C++, Visual Basic, F#) and PDB Files: What Every Developer Must Know .
Make sure that it has the same framework version when you use the attach process, see this.
