windows 10 check if debugging mode is enabled?

Is there any way on Windows 10 Enterprise to check if debugging mode is enabled, via registry or any commands? I tried to research on Google, but I can't find anthing on it.

This is how you check if debugging mode is enabled:

  1. Type regedit into search bar.
  2. Go to this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control
  3. Double-click this value: SystemStartOptions
  4. If debugging mode is enabled it should include the port and say "DEBUG": FLIGHTSIGNING NOEXECUTE=OPTIN DEBUGPORT=1394 FVEBOOT=2670592 NOVGA DEBUG

If it's not enabled it just says "NODEBUG": FLIGHTSIGNING NOEXECUTE=OPTIN NODEBUG FVEBOOT=2670592 NOVGA

In this picture it shows it is enabled by having the port and "DEBUG" listed:
