How to: Change the Debug Stepping Option (Legacy)

This topic describes how to change the debug stepping option for Windows Workflow Foundation (WF) applications in the legacy Windows Workflow Designer that have concurrent actions. Use the legacy Workflow Designer when you need to target either the .NET Framework version 3.5 or the .NET Framework 3.0.
