Visual Studio Immediate Window

The Immediate window is used at design time to debug and evaluate expressions, execute statements, print variable values, and so forth. It allows you to enter expressions to be evaluated or executed by the development language during debugging.

 

Immediate window is one of basics windows that i can’t live without when using Visual Studio for debugging my application, Its even do more functionality in terms of expression evaluation, you can check more details here Immediate Window.

I’m suddenly discovered that I'm missing this window in my Visual Studio 2008 and I don’t know why! I’ve searched the View and Debug menus but no luck to find it.

Vitaly Gorn has posted a workaround about how to enable this window again, Missing Immediate Window in VS2008 Thanks a lot Vitaly!

  • You can make it appear on your menus.

    1. Go Tools-->Customize-->Commands.

    2. Select 'Debug' category

    3. Drag 'Immediate' to wherever you want it on the menus.

    or you can use the keyboard shortcut <CTRL> + <ALT> + I

  • Thanks, this was a good quick way to right the ship.
