Change default browser in Visual Studio 2010 RC

Tags:

In Visual Studio 2010 (RC) there is no longer a "browse with" context menu when right clicking .aspx pages. How can you change the default browser now?

By default it seems to use the operating system default browser, but I would prefer to use IE when debugging ASP.net apps. (I am testing this with ASP.net MVC 2)

How do I change the run browser code in Visual Studio?

Select the Explorer from the left toolbar. Find your HTML file in the Explorer and right-click on it. Choose “Open in Default Browser” or “Open in Other Browsers.” If you select the “Open in Default Browser” option, the HTML file will launch in whatever browser is set as default.

There is also a browser switcher extension for Visual Studio, which works perfectly! http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/bb424812-f742-41ef-974a-cdac607df921 Browser Switcher

update: the extension is removed from the gallery, try this one: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/233945ae-0b7b-47e7-9b02-c5a11798afb5
