Question
Is it possible for Visual Studio to launch a 64bit version of IE when debugging an ASP.Net application?
I need to be able to use multiple tabs during debugging and IE 32bit crashes when I open a second tab.
Solution
In Visual Studio Solution Explorer
- click on any Web Form page (.aspx)
- click on "Browse With...", that opens a dialog box
- click the "Add" button
- choose ""C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" for the path (on 64-bit systems, this is IE 64) and for example "Internet Explorer 64-bit" for the friendly name
- click on the "Set as Default" button
- close this dialog box
