Here is what i have already tried
copy paste app.so file from ./build/windows to ./build/windows/runner/Debug/data
this is an inefficient solution, since hot reload doesn't work.
downgrade visual studio to 2019
I tried to downgrade visual studio to 2019, and then deleted windows folder form root directory, then ran flutter clean and flutter create .. then started debug and this error happened
Launching lib\main.dart on Windows in debug mode...
lib\main.dart:1
Error waiting for a debug connection: The log reader stopped unexpectedly, or never started.
Error launching application on Windows.
Exited (sigterm)
so i uninstalled visual studio and installed 2022 version back.
Also tried flutter clean had no effect.
What can I do for this error?

Answer 1

This is a bug in the version of CMake shipped with the latest update to Visual Studio 2022. There is currently no good workaround other than using an earlier version of VS, but you can follow that issue for updates.

Answer 2

When you downgraded to Visual Studio 2019, did you simply delete Visual Studio 2022?
I found that when I simply deleted Visual Studio 2022, I had your same error. I had success by uninstalling then reinstalling "Desktop development with C++" from my Visual Studio 2019, followed by flutter clean and flutter run -d windows.

Answer 3

I have fixed from this github issue.flutter github issue
