What is the meaning of the square breakpoint in Visual Studio?
I placed 2 breakpoints and one of them turned square. What does it mean? If it helps I am remotely debugging some code.

It is conditional breakpoint. You can specify some condition like someValue == true then only then it will hit.

@fhnaseer No, the indication for that is having a plus sign in the breakpoint symbol.

It means execution will not break at that breakpoint, but only a message will be output in the debugging log.
To change this, right click on the breakpoint and choose "Settings" (In older VS Version) or "Actions" (starting with VS 2017).
See this question for why this is useful:

According to docs.microsoft.com debugger using breakpoint
Blockquote A tracepoint is a breakpoint that prints a message to the Output window. A tracepoint can act like a temporary trace statement in the programming language.
You can change the breakpoint setting by click on setting button near breakpoint by moving cursor to breakpoint.
