How to turn off Fiddler breakpoints

fiddler

I am using Fiddler v4.4.1.1 beta.

I once activated automatic before the request breakpoint. Now I have disabled it back, but Fiddler continues to break. I do not know what to do.

Observe:

Notice, the breakpoints are disabled and the same tells the status line - there is no breakpoint icon there.

Yet, the breakpoint is still active:

I cannot use Fiddler any more.

I have issued the bpafter, bps, bpv, bpm and bpu commands without any arguments to clear any possible breakpoint. I have never thought I would ever call Fiddler like this, but it continues to break.

How do you set breakpoints in Fiddler?

Breakpoints are one of the most powerful features in Fiddler, and you can set them in whatever way you find most convenient. ProTip: If you're using Fiddler's Composer tab, simply SHIFT+Click the Execute button to immediately breakpoint on the newly-issued request.

I finally found it.

There is another place where breakpoints are exposed - the filter tab, which I often use, but never knew it controls breakpoints as well:

The confusing part is that I have never touched this option - only used the host filter part. Apparently, setting an auto breakpoint in the rules menu now sets this flag too, silently. But it is not cleared back when I disable the breakpoint, which is a terrible UI experience.
