How can you stop Visual Studio rearranging its Windows when debugging
Whenever I start debugging an application, Visual Studio moves my cheese.
How can I make it leave my cheese alone?
Switching back to another perspective after you're done debugging has to be: manual (mouse click) manual ("Switch Perspective" shortcut CTRL F8 ) automatic: Debug Perspective Auto Closer, which supplements bug 46336.
In most languages supported by Visual Studio, you can edit your code in the middle of a debugging session and continue debugging. To use this feature, click into your code with your cursor while paused in the debugger, make edits, and press F5, F10, or F11 to continue debugging.
To end a debugging session in Microsoft Visual Studio, from the Debug menu, choose Stop Debugging.
In Solution Explorer, right-click the project and choose Properties. In the side pane, choose Build (or Compile in Visual Basic). In the Configuration list at the top, choose Debug or Release. Select the Advanced button (or the Advanced Compile Options button in Visual Basic).
The only solution is that you must arrange things twice. Afterwards it won't move "your cheese" except as you expected it.

This is a "feature" actually. The presumption is that you would want a different layout when debugging (ie, watch windows visible in debug, but not coding). I don't think there's a way to prevent it other than going into debug and manually moving things to match your coding layout.
