I am using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010. When I am building my application in Debug mode, it is producing an EXE file (like it is supposed to be doing). But then (which is very surprising for me), when I change the mode from Debug to the Release mode, the compiler builds the application as a .DLL file?

I have only very recently started to use Visual Studio 2010, so don’t know my way around it yet. How do I fix this so that when it is compiling in Release mode, to build the application as an .exe file ?

    In the IDE, right click on your project, and select Properties.
    Configuration Properties->General->Configuration Type set to ‘Application (.exe)’
