I've just updated to Visual Studio 2012 and am having a new problem: every time I tell the website to debug, it rebuilds the entire site even though I made no changes to the code. It takes 5 to 10 minutes to do the build and is very frustrating. VS2010
did not do this, allowing the site to just restart in debug mode without the recompile (very quickly) as long as I did not change any code. Is there some new setting in VS2012 for this?
You can right click on your website in the Solution Explorer and select Property Pages.
Click "Bulid" at the left side of this page. Then, change the start action(F5) to No Build.
Then it won't build at all. What I want is for the pages/files that changed (and their dependencies) to build, but not everything every time. For example, while debugging I stop the debugger then re-start it again. Right now, with no changes to any files,
the whole site compiles again. I would like for it to not compile unless I make a change. And then only the files (and thier dependencies) that changed. Like VS2010 works!

Anything? I've tried telling it to just compile the page, but that doesn't get everything that changed, only the aspx page that is set in startup.
THIS USED TO WORK in VS2010! HELP!

I've created a bug report at (https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/759075/website-project-rebuilds-entire-project-every-time-start-debugging). Please go there and add to the "I can reproduce" so they'll pay attention to it.
Thanks,

Try this - Tools > Options > Projects and Solutions > Build and Run > select "Only build startup projects and dependencies on Run".

Thanks. That setting is already set.
