Hi, I just notice that MS has removed the autoexp.dat file in vs2019 and replaced with Natvis:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/debugger/create-custom-views-of-native-objects?view=vs-2019
such that INSTALL step4 cannot be done.
So is there any plan to update the INSTALL document or workaround?
tank you

Indeed, the INSTALL document is pretty much outdated.

These days, cv2pdb is not necessary to debug D code in Visual Studio anymore. With dmd, compile to COFF with -m64 or -m32mscoff and use the mago debugger extension (https://github.com/rainers/mago) that is installed with Visual D (https://rainers.github.io/visuald/visuald/StartPage.html).
