Disable auto save of code in Visual Studio 2012

I am using Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Pro for windows software development. Earlier I used to use VS 2008.

One option that I couldn't find (which was there in older version) is :

Before building -
-Do not save any changes
-Save all changes
-Prompt to save changes

The above was available in Tools->Options->Build & Run in older versions.

At times when I make temp changes in my code which I don't want to save it then that feature comes in handy.

Is there any way I can stop VS 2012 from saving my code before I build/run it.

Thank you,

Cheers, GR

That feature was dropped in Visual Studio 2010. As far as I know it hasn't resurfaced in Visual Studio 2012.
