How to start a single project without debugging in

Question

My solution contains multiple projects which can be started. SometimesI would like to start a single project without using my solution startup projects settings. When I right-click on the project, I can navigate to Debug->Start New Instance, which starts the application with debugger.

But I would like to start a new instance without debugger. Is this possible?

Answer 1

Maybe this is new in VS 2015 but there's no need to add a custom macro - you can find the Start Without Debugging menu item in the list of things you can add.

Go to Tools -> Customize, follow the images below.

Answer 2

In short no.

What you could do is bind a key to the "Set as startup project" and then bind another key to start without debugging. Then you would have to push 2 keys to start this project without debugging, but at least it'd be quicker than using the mouse...
