The old install of Windows included Visual studio 2015 before (but was removed when 2017 was released). On the new system I just installed Visual Studio 2017 (same version as on the old machine as I always keep everything up to date). The old system may have had 3.5 installed, so I will give that a try first. / comments

Hi, Extracting the requested information and preparing that to upload made me think about the problem and after I sent it I realized what was really going on. Turns out the issue does indeed happen with SA enabled, but it's not caused by SA. In fact it was caused by a rookie mistake on our end. Assuming a call was being awaited while in fact it wasn't. Debug and normal release builds always worked by accident, timing differences with the SA enabled version caused the bug to pop up, but that's entirely our fault. My apologies for the inconvenience. / comments

Or can I send it to you by other means? I can tell you that before and after are quite different. / comments

So basically we have a class called `ExportedArchive` which has a few methods. After obfuscation all but one method works without issues. The one that fails is called `ImportAsync` and no matter what attributes we add or what we configure in SA, the code is always obfuscated to this: public static async Task ImportAsync(string inputFilename, string targetDirectory, DeviceClient deviceClient, //more ...) { ExportedArchive.<ImportAsync>d__10 variable = new ExportedArchive.<ImportAsync>d__10(); AsyncTaskMethodBuilder asyncTaskMethodBuilder = new AsyncTaskMethodBuilder(); Task task; try { variable.inputFilename = inputFilename; variable.targetDirectory = targetDirectory; variable.deviceClient = deviceClient; variable.container = container; variable.FileImportedCallback = FileImportedCallback; variable.progress = progress; variable.cancellationToken = cancellationToken; variable.<>t__builder = AsyncTaskMethodBuilder.Create(); variable.<>1__state = -1; asyncTaskMethodBuilder = variable.<>t__builder; asyncTaskMethodBuilder.Start<ExportedArchive.<ImportAsync>d__10>(ref variable); task = variable.<>t__builder.Task; } catch (Exception exception) { .(exception, variable, asyncTaskMethodBuilder, inputFilename, targetDirectory, deviceClient, container, FileImportedCallback, progress, cancellationToken); throw; } return task; } And we really need it to remain untouched by SA. When running the obfuscated version the exception information is ExportedArchive.<ImportAsync>D__10.MoveNext() --- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown --- at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ThrowForNonSuccess(Task task) at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndebuggerNotification(Task task) at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ValidateEnd(Task task) / comments

Thank you! I'll have to try it in the morning though, midnight here, at a different system now. I'll keep you posted. (Meanwhile if you have any idea about my other post, since it's a showstopper for us) / comments
