Locals window empty (Visual Studio 2015)

I was working on a project just like usual. I run it and check my Locals window only to see it empty. I tried restarting VS and then my computer but it was without success. I tried opening another project and it didn't have that issue. I googled and came across many threads with similar issues. Most of them were VS 2008 or 2010 however.

I reinstalled Visual Studio 2015 only to find that all projects (that I checked (7)) have the same issue. I emptied the symbol cache, changed debugging and other settings as was suggested in some of the answers in other threads but all attempts have failed.

My Locals window:

General debugging settings:

If there's anything else I can grab a screenshot of that would help I'll gladly do so.

Try typing:

.natvisreload

followed by the Enter key within the Debugger Immediate Window.

To view variable in the local window, add a breakpoint in your project, you could view it after the breakpoint is hit.

For the issue "Cannot find or open the PDB file", please enabled "microsoft symbol servers" under the TOOLS-> Options-> Debugging-> Symbols.
