This question already has an answer here:
Does anyone know of a way to set Visual Studio to use the same browser window again, instead of opening a new one, every time you start/debug an ASP.NET project?
This is a simple issue. When I click 'Start with Debugging' to test my ASP.NET application, it launches my project in a new browser window.
During development at any one point I have nearly a dozen browser windows open, which is not a big deal, but having to open the developer tools and get the browser setup again so I can see what is going on is annoying.
I have looked around for an answer to this, but I did not find anything.
Don't close the browser window, and next time just BUILD the project, and then go back to the browser and refresh your page... there is a new icon in your tray that shows that the "ASP.NET Development Server" is running, and the project is available in the browser as long as this icon is there.
