In my solution there are like 8 different projects,most of the times the startup project is project A but some times I need to run other projects to check things and to do that I must set other project as the startup project every time I wanna know if there is any other way to run a project in the solution without setting it as the startup project ? this will save me lot's of time thanks

+1  A: 

Right click on the project, there is an entry on the context menu to run the project in the debugger. Its right underneath the command to "Set as StartUp project".

Debug > Start New Instance

It doesn't take a lot of time, just Right click the project and select "Set as startup project". 2 clicks.

If you want though you can use another method, right click the project, go to "Debug" and click on "Start new instance". 3 clicks!

thanks I haven't seen the debug options :(this is much more better than setting the project as startup project because usually I forget to set the start up project back to what it was and so It will take more than 2 clicks ;)

A: 

You can also bind this command to keyboard shortcut: Tools->Options->Environment->Keyboard

Search for "Startnewinstance"

This way you can achieve desired with 0 clicks :)
