As the title asks, what’s the difference between “Stop Debugging” and “Terminate All” in Visual Studio (I know those options are available in 2008, but not sure if it’s called the same or something different in 2005 or 2010) ?

    I think Terminate All will kill all attached processes in Visual Studio while the former just stops debugging but leaves the processes running.

    Update: A better answer from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/406kfbs1.aspx

    Stop Debugging terminates the process you are debugging if the
    program was launched from Visual
    Studio. If you attached to the
    process, instead of launching it from
    Visual Studio, the process continues
    running. If you want to terminate
    attached processes, you can terminate
    a single process from the Processes
    window or terminate all attached
    process with the Terminate All
    command.
