Dear STMicroelectronics Support Team,
I am writing to report a persistent issue with STM32CubeIDE that is affecting multiple users in our company and blocking our development work.
Issue Description:
When we try to debug any STM32 project, the debugger launch process gets stuck at 51% with the message:
Launching: Initializing debugger services
The issue occurs with different versions of STM32CubeIDE and with multiple target boards.
Steps to Reproduce:
Open STM32CubeIDE and build the project (build succeeds).
Click Debug.
Debugger launch stops at 51% and does not proceed further.
Environment Details:
STM32CubeIDE Versions Tested: 1.9.0 and 1.13.2 (same result)
Operating System: [Windows 10 / Windows 11]
Target Boards Tested:
STM32F429I-DISC1
STM32F407-DISC
ST-LINK Firmware: [if known, mention version]
Actions Taken:
Reinstalled STM32CubeIDE (both versions).
Reinstalled ST-LINK USB drivers.
Verified ST-LINK is detected correctly in Device Manager.
Tried on multiple PCs within our company — all systems show the same behavior.
Despite these actions, the issue persists on all systems and boards.
I have attached a screenshot of the IDE progress bar stuck at 51% for reference.
Could you please investigate this issue and suggest a solution or provide a patch/update if this is a known problem?
This issue is affecting multiple developers in our company, so an urgent resolution would be greatly appreciated.
