IE11 not showing javascript files in debugger

in IE11 I display the developer tools, then click on the debugger (or Ctrl-3) and it displays the debugger. In the top left there is the folder drop down which has a list of js files usually, but in this case none are displayed, only the html file is displayed.

The site I'm looking at is on my local PC running in IIS if it matters. I can go to the same site on our build box and the js files are displayed in the debugger. I've restarted everything a number of times. I've checked the network monitor in the developer tools and it downloads the javascript files fine, I just can't see them in the debugger. It's worked previously fine (a couple of weeks ago when last I had to debug an IE problem), Any suggestions?

running IE 11, Windows 7

Must be a problem with my IE11 install - I downloaded an IE11 vm from modern.ie and it works fine there. (setup information here for any curious https://superuser.com/questions/248569/virtual-pc-cant-access-localhost)

Please go to the Debugger tab in Developer tools. Hit Ctrl+O and type your file name. Alternately, you can click the Folder icon and search for your file.
