Set Google Chrome as the debugging browser in Visual Studio

When I press F5 in Visual Studio 2008, I want Google Chrome launched as the browser that my ASP.NET app runs in. May I know how this can be done?

Right click on an .aspx file and click "Browse with..." then select Chrome and click "Set as Default." You can select more than one browser in the list if you want.

There's also this really great WoVS Default Browser Switcher Visual Studio extension.

  1. Go to the visual studio toolbar and click on the dropdown next to CPU (where it says IIS Express in the screenshot). One of the choices should be "Browse With..."

    Visual Studio Toolbar

  2. Select a browser, e.g. Google Chrome, then click Set as Default

    Browse With...

  3. Click Browse or Cancel.
