Why is the breakpoint of PyCharm suddenly greyed out when I debug the program?

Breakpoint changes its color and the program does not stop there anymore, when I debug it. This is how it looks before I run:

and the breakpoint changes its color once I start to debug the program:

How could I solve the problem?

For some reason (probably by mistake) you must have muted the breakpoints. When you mute the breakpoints, they stay regular, and only when you start running (debugging...) - they change to grey which indicates they are muted.

The icon to mute/unmute is on the Debug Toolbar, with a line over a breakpoint icon:

An image of the debug toolbar, focused on the left pane, highlighting the "mute breakpoints" button (a breakpoint symbol (red dot) with a grey line crossing it diagonally)

You can notice that the icon itself has kind of a grey background which indicates that it is selected and (all) breakpoints are muted. You want it to be without the grey background which means it is not selected and all breakpoints are active
