I expected to find them under the Debug menu, then Windows but the call stack isn't there in visual studio 2017
It's under Debug > Windows, but you only see it when your application is running:
When your application isn't running, the menu is quite short:

Is it possible to stop visual studio and the console window launch by it upon starting debugging to the foreground/stole focus?
I'm using the version 2019 v16.11.5, and I only could find an option for the breakpoints:
Everything I've read about debugging C# programs on Windows Subsystem for Linux either uses Visual Studio Code, or tells you to launch the program through bash then attach the debugger to the process.
This method works, but it's slow to initiate every time I'd like to debug a change. Is there a way to setup Visual Studio to start remote debugging from the IDE similar to how it's done in C++?
You can debug the .Net Core application on WSL2 from Visual Studio 2019 now.
You need to install/update to version Visual Studio 2019 v16.9.1.
There are the Prerequisites, You can refer to Start debugging with WSL 2.
While all the other versions and editions of Visual Studio I use on different machines bring up the Diagnostics Tools windows when I launch any of my projects in the Visual Studio debugger by pressing F5, the Visual Studio 2013 Professional edition installation I have doesn't.
It does have the diagnostic tools, though.
How do I get it to start the debug session with diagnostics and to display the diagnostics windows as well automatically upon starting a debugging session?
In VS2015, it has the option "Enable Diagnostic Tools while debugging" under TOOLS->Options->Debugging->General.
But it doesn't have this feature in VS2013. It has the function Performance and Diagnostics hub under Debug menu.
It was the new feature in VS2015:

Whenever I click "Attach to Process..." in the Visual Studio 2013 Visual studio crashes on me before seeing the attach dialog, regardless of if I have a project loaded or not. I can click debug and get into debug mode but I really need to attach.
Things I've Tried:
Uninstalled and Reinstalled VS
Loading Visual Studio with "/safemode"
Loading Visual Studio with "/log" and checking the log (no notable errors listed)
Deleting my Local Temp folder
Additional Info:
OS: Windows 8
Version: Visual Studio 2013 Update 4
Exeption when debugging VS crash:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.AccessViolationException' occurred in Microsoft.VisualStudio.CommonIDE.dll
Not sure what else to try or where else to look, I have VS 2015 preview install and it has no problems.
In my case the culprit was "PowerShell tools for Visual Studio 2013". I disabled it and the problem disappeared.
Tools => Extensions and Updates... => choose the extension and press Disable

I'm using Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate Update 3.
But, it doesn't show all Debug features windows. Example: Debug\Windows\Locals or Disassembly tab.
Can you tell me how to show it?
