  • 0

When I start a program without debugging (Ctrl+F5), I have to press a key to close the console window when the program is finished. When I start the program with debugging (F5), the console window closes immediately. Is there an option in Visual Studio that will keep the window open when debugging?

(I know of a thousand ways to do it “manually” in code, but I don’t want to touch the code.)

    Add a break point to the ending bracket of the main() method. That way if the program finishes (unless it crashes in the process – which will trigger a break anyway) it will break no matter which return statement in the main was used.
