Is there a way to turn off javascript debugging in VS 2013 when using Internet Explorer?

I have already unchecked the option Debugging -> Just-In-Time Debugging -> Script, but whenever I start/debug my ASP.NET project (using IE), VS loads all script documents (js files) and shows them in the solution explorer.

• try this also, Tools -> Options -> Debugging and checking or unchecking the "Enable Just My Code" checkbox. let me know if this is not working for you – cracker Commented Aug 21, 2014 at 9:34
• @cracker: checking/unchecking "Enable Just My Code" makes no difference – M4N Commented Aug 21, 2014 at 11:23
• have you tried this: Tools -> Environment -> Web Browser -> Internet Explorer Options -> Advance -> From List Find out the Browser -> Disable script debugging (Internet Explorer) & Disable script debugging (other) (Check it default is uncheck) – cracker Commented Aug 22, 2014 at 7:23
• This is also helpful but do in case of all the doors are closed :: Disable all script debugging in VS via: reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\AD7Metrics\Engine{F200A7E7-DEA5-11D0-B854-00A0244A1DE2} /v ProgramProvider /d {4FF9DEF4-8922-4D02-9379-3FFA64D1D639} /f – cracker Commented Aug 22, 2014 at 7:28

Found an answer here that worked for me - a simple web.config tweak

http://www.poconosystems.com/software-development/how-to-disable-browser-link-in-visual-studio-2013/

You may do so either globally by changing the option from within Visual Studio:

Or by adding this line to your web.config files per project:

<configuration>
    <appSettings>
        <add key="vs:EnableBrowserLink" value="false" />
        ...

List item

Open Visual Studio 2019 with your project

1. Select Tools
2. Select Options
3. Select Debugging
4. Uncheck (Enable Java script debugging for ASP.Net(chrome,Edge and IE))
