Menu
Visual Studio startup projects dropdown not showing one of the projects.
The project is in the solution. In Solution Explorer, I can right click to the project and select "Set as StartUp Project".
I just want to see it in startup projects dropdown.
I am using Visual Studio Enterprise 2017. There are web projects and console projects in solution.

Right click the project in the Solution window and then select Set As Startup Project.
Select a project and right click, then select 'Remove from StartUp Projects...'
Old question, but looks like there is currently no fix to this issue and based on the questions found on VS Development Community this issue has been raised but closed as low priority.

In my case, startup dropdown seems to only show dotnet core projects and console projects (and randomly some library projects).
As @Keith has mentioned above a work around is to right-click desired project and set selected project as startup. That project will then be actively selected in the startup dropdown.

An answer in this thread points to the SwitchStartupProject extension. It works well to show and start all projects in the solution and replaces the regular Startup Project drop-down.
