How can I switch my signed in user in Visual Studio 2013?

A new feature of Visual Studio 2013 is the ability to sign in with a Microsoft Account and have your settings be persisted across all of your instances of Visual Studio, amongst other things.

I’ve now installed the RTM version of Visual…

Format code shortcut for Visual Studio?

In eclipse there is a shortcut Ctrl+Shift+F that re-indents code and fixes comments and blank lines. Is there an equivalent for Visual Studio 2010?

Answer [by Chris Schmich]: Format code shortcut for Visual Studio?

Yes, you can use the two-chord hotkey (Ctrl+K, Ctrl+F if you’re using the General profile) to format your selection.

How can I prevent Visual Studio 2013 from closing my IIS Express app when I end debugging?

Previously in 2012, if I debugged in Chrome (for example), and then stopped the debugger, the website would remain running in IIS Express. This no longer seems to be the case in 2013.

Is this a new change that I need to make? How can I keep the website instance running even after I stop the debugger?…

How to hide reference counts in VS2013?

Visual Studio 2013 introduced a new feature where it shows you how many times each of your methods are used.

How to: Can I record/play Macros in Visual Studio 2012/2013?

Can I record/play Macros in Visual Studio 2012/2013?

Apparently macros were dropped from VS 2012.

Is there a plugin/extension/tool that will let me record & play keyboard macros (much like the record/play temporary macro in VS 2010)?

E.g. I typically would use a macro when converting code from one language to another or to quickly generate properties from a text list, etc.

Why can’t my program compile under Windows 7 in French?

I’m running Windows 7 French and I’m trying to compile this really basic program, but Visual Studio is being stubborn and refuses to comply. I also tried compiling it with both GCC 4.7 and Clang trunk on Coliruand I get more or less the same errors (output is below the code), though I think Coliru runs on an English OS so I wouldn’t expect…
