Visual Studio - Launch Chrome, FireFox and Internet Explorer All at the Same Time

by Bill Beckelman 2. September 2008 21:10

I have been trying out Chrome this evening and it came to mind it sure would be nice to launch all the browsers I test with at once. It took a little searching, but I found this article from a year ago with the answer. I knew about right clicking an aspx file and choosing "Browse With...", but I never thought to Ctrl-Click multiple browsers. Unfortunately once you have this set it only seems to work when you right click and choose "View in Browser" or "Browse With..." again. It would be nice it it opened all of the selected browsers with F5 or Ctrl-F5. Please let me know if you figure this one out. The best I have come up with is Ctrl-Shift-W for "View in Browser" when working on an aspx page.

1. Right click an aspx file in solution explorer and select "Browse With..."

2. Ctrl-Click the Browsers you want and then choose "Browse" or if you want to always do this choose "Set as Default" first.

Note: The default install location for Chrome on Vista is C:\Users\Insert User Account Name\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe
