Is there a way to prevent Visual Studio from printing Thread exited statements into the Output Window?

Question

Such as:

The thread '<No Name>' (0x16b4) has exited with code 0 (0x0).

When I am using the Output Window for my own data, the threading messages clutters it.

Answer 1

Yes, this is easy to do. Just right-click the Output window and untick the "Thread Exit Messages" option:

If you want the setting to apply to every future project instead of just the current one then use Tools > Options > Debugging > Output Window > Thread Exit Messages = Off.
