debugger does not recognize User settings

I have added the following setting in application settings:

Name: Type: Scope: Value:

ComboBoxItems String User I didn't insert any value here

I declared as following:

    public partial class postLoginWindow : Window
{
    private readonly string dbConnectionString = Properties.Settings.Default.dbConnectionString;
    private readonly string currentAdminEmail;
    private string ComboBoxItemsString = Properties.Settings.Default.ComboBoxItems;
    public postLoginWindow(string receivedAdminEmail)
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        LoadComboBoxValues();
        if (ComboBoxSelectedProfile.Items.IsEmpty)
        {
            ComboBoxSelectedProfile.IsEnabled = false;
            ButtonRenameProfile.IsEnabled = false;
            ButtonChangePermissions.IsEnabled = false;
            ButtonAddNewUser.IsEnabled = false;
            ButtonRemoveUser.IsEnabled = false;
            ButtonDeleteProfile.IsEnabled = false;
        }
...
     }
}

This is the method i used to load the string values into the comboBox:

private void LoadComboBoxValues()
        {
            string[] ComboBoxRows = ComboBoxItemsString.Split('|');
            foreach (string Row in ComboBoxRows)
            {
                if (Row != "") ComboBoxSelectedProfile.Items.Add(Row);
            }
        }

and this is how i add values when i want to save them in the setting string:

private void ComboBoxAddItem(string item)
        {
            string[] ComboBoxRows = Properties.Settings.Default.ComboBoxItems.Split('|');
            bool ItemAlreadyExists = false;
            foreach (string Row in ComboBoxRows)
            {
                if (Row == item) ItemAlreadyExists = true;
            }

            if (!ItemAlreadyExists)
            {
                parent.ComboBoxSelectedProfile.Items.Add(item);
                string ComboBoxSavedProfileAsString = TxtProfileName.Text + "|";
                Properties.Settings.Default.ComboBoxItems = Properties.Settings.Default.ComboBoxItems +
                                                            ComboBoxSavedProfileAsString;
                Properties.Settings.Default.Save();
            }
        }

Which is done from another window in which i add users.

The problem is: everytime i go into DebugMode for debugging my application it rises up as if the settings string is empty even if i did add some string to it. So i can't debug my application.

i' appreciate your help very much!

BIG Thanks to @Wendy - MSFT, thanks to him/her/it i found the true solution to this problem (which is basically the opposite of what she/he/apache helicopter suggested):

Adding user-settings to be included in Debug-time

Please note: Unchecked = Debugger WILL INCLUDE your user-settings that you added to debugging time.

Checked = Debugger WILL IGNORE your user-settings that you added to debugging time.

Please checked "Enable the Visual Studio hosting process" option in Project Properties window. When this option is disabled, the settings string that added before will be empty. But after I enable this option, the settings string value will show.
