Hi everyone, I'm a new user on a Windows 10 machine, using Anaconda. I've 
updated Spyder to the 5.1.5 version (the highest available on Anaconda) and 
I cannot get the debugger to work at all.

I have made a trivial program and set breakpoints, and can run it to 
completion. However when I hit debug, it stops at the first non-comment 
line and I cannot advance by any means, including any buttons.

When I first encountered this problem Anaconda had installed Spyder 4.0.1: 
In this version I got IPdb prompts in the debugger and could manually type 
"next", even though all the UI buttons in the actual Spyder program were 
nonfunctional. On googling found that issues were fixed later. So I updated 
to 5.1.5. 

In 5.1.5 there is no IPdb line at all, and attempts to stop the process 
display 
"--KeyboardInterrupt--
For copying text while debugging, use Ctrl+Shift+C"

In the debug console, but they don't actually stop the debugger! The kernel 
seems completely stuck, and no program can run until I close the kernel and 
open a new one. There is no other way to exit the debugger.

I've spent a few hours reading old threads, updating, restarting the 
machine, and trying to figure out what the heck to do, so any help would be 
appreciated! Attached below is the trivial program and what the debugger 
looks like.
