Maximum number of IntelliJ Run Configurations before they roll off

Question

In IntelliJ, If I right-click on a class and choose Run 'XYZ', it adds them to the Run Configurations dialog.

This is fine, but after adding 6 new Run Configs this way, it rolls off the configs you've losed least recently. This is annoying if I run 6 different junit tests individually, then suddenly run configs I want to keep are deleted.

Is there anyway to increase the limit from 6?

Thanks

Answer 1

You can open Run | Edit Configurations and check Share checkbox for those configurations you want to save. And those will no be deleted.

Or, if you don't want it to be shared, you can click Save icon in the same configuration window. This configuration will also not be deleted.

You can find more information here

Answer 2

I know this is an old post but I got the same issue and managed to find out how to set the limit.

From IntelliJ documentation:

By default, 5 temporary configurations are allowed per project. You can change this limit via the Edit Configurations dialog.

Link to documentation on how to change the limit.
