In Visual Studio 2013 it was possible to start debugging with a specific browser:
I' missing this functionality in Visual Studio 2015
Is there somewhre an option to bring it back? (Browse with... starts the browser but doesn't start debugging)
UPDATE
It seems that the the browser selection is not gone (thanks Gregor for your answer), but however something wrong with my installation. I've tried to do a Reset (Tools -> Import and Export Settings -> Reset all settings) but that didn't help as well.
Anyone else having a solution how to bring the browser seletion back ?
UPDATE 2
It seems that the missing Items only affect Windows 7 (64bit?) Users. Can someone else confirm that?

In the Visual Studio toolbar, make sure the configuration is set to Debug. To start debugging, select the profile name in the toolbar, such as <project profile name>, IIS Express, or <IIS profile name> in the toolbar, select Start Debugging from the Debug menu, or press F5.
Hover over the breakpoint symbol, choose the Settings icon, and then select Remove breakpoint once hit in the Breakpoint Settings window.
If a source file has changed and the source no longer matches the code you're debugging, the debugger won't set breakpoints in the code by default. Normally, this problem happens when a source file is changed, but the source code wasn't rebuilt. To fix this issue, rebuild the project.
In the toolbar, click the button to get the dropdown of browsers to debug with and then click "Browse with...". Click "Add...", set Program to wherever Chrome is on your machine and set Arguments to --remote-debugging-port=9222 . You can also set Incognito as I have to ignore cache but it is not required. Important!

By default, Visual Studio uses Internet Explorer for debugging. If you’re looking for a way to change that, perhaps to harness the power of developer tools in Firefox or other browsers (or perhaps just because you don’t like IE), it’s pretty easy to do. Right-click your start-up project in Studio and click Browse With…
Yes,sometime if u are unable to see browsing option like IE,Chrome then follow below steps (Faced issue on - Visual studio 2015 ) Once you will follow above steps web browsing option will be appear. Show activity on this post.
To create a new browser configuration, make sure your web project is set to be the start-up project in Visual Studio, then open the dropdown on the start button and select 'Browse with...'. Here you should see the existing browser configurations that Visual Studio has automatically created based on your installed browsers.
If you running into the same problems as me, try the follwoing:
Select Browse with... and then set another browser als default. Afterwards the "Start" gets replaced with the specific Browser Name and all Browsers are available.

I just had a very similar issue.
Mine happened after I unloaded the web project, and it defaulted to a "non-web" project as the startup project.
In order to get the browsers back I did the following:
This should return the browsers to the debug options.

I just ran into this same issue. In my case it was a feature.... I am working in a SharePoint App project. See the included screen shot to see where to change the browser.
