My new development machine is running Windows 8 64-bit with IE 10.

When I start to debug a web application using VS 2012 with IIS Express as the web server, IE 10 soon reports

This page can't be displayed
 o Make sure the web address http://localhost:9999 is correct

Refreshing IE 10 brings up the page I am trying to debug. This was never an issue on my older (and slower) Win 7 / VS 2012 / IE 9 setup debugging the same code. It is consistently reproducible.

Is there a setting I can tweak to instruct IE 10 to wait another second or two for VS 2012 to serve http://localhost:9999?

    There is a ReceiveTimeout setting in the registry. For me, it was set to 10000ms (10 seconds).

    Change that value to the desired number of milliseconds.

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ReceiveTimeout
