Breakpoint installation failure unmatched quote

Hello. I am currently working on a NUCLEO-L152RE project in the latest version of the CubeIDE. I am running into an error where I can not install break points due to an "unmatched quote". I have tried the common fixes (New work space) for this that I could find online and it hasn't resolved it. I also ran fresh installs of the programs and encountered the same issue. Has anyone else encountered this problem? I have included a screenshot below for reference.

I added a PS to my previous post - it looks like the single quote might also upset things...

Check also what "OneDrive - Personal" actually translates to ...

Welcome to the forum.

Please see How to write your question to maximize your chances to find a solution for best results

 

In particular, what version of Cube are you using, and on what platform?

Please describe in detail the steps you take to get to this error.

Is this a project you've created yourself, an ST example, or something else?

I am using the 2.0.0 Build of both the IDE and MX software. I used the MX file to generate the initial code and then added some generic lines (incrementing an integer). This is the second project I have created using the MX and they both have the same problem. I am running the software on a Windows 11 set up. As far as I can tell everything functions properly except for the breakpoints.

    Does the project build and run successfully?

    Maybe there is an unmatched quote in the file or a file it includes. It's unlikely to be making things up--this is parsed, not AI.

    The project builds and runs as intended. The breakpoint is to be inserted as part of a lab exercise to show functionality.  When I manually stop/start the program it functions as intended, it just won't allow me to insert a breakpoint. As far as the included files I generated it in MX (ver 2.0.0).

    So have you shown this behaviour to your lab supervisor?
