Debugging a kernel mode driver

I want to deploy and debug a kernel mode driver with the kernel debugger in Visual Studio 2019. Deploying and installing works and I also can start and stop the driver. But when I try to debug it, the breakpoints are ignored and the driver keeps running. Unfortunately there is no information in Google about that issue so I hope anybody of you can help me.

Thanks!
