How many times over the years of using Visual Studio have I’ve added the two lines of code to my console apps (mostly quick simple or testing console apps):

Console.WriteLine("**Press");
Console.ReadLine();

I know it’s been there since sometime in Visual Studio 2017 … Yes the setting that removes the need for those two lines of code…

Tools => Options => Debugging => General… The magic check box labelled:

‘Automatically close the console when debugging stops’  

The simple sweetness of that single setting!  A Millionth of a Penny for every time I had to go back in put those two lines of code in my console apps…

I humbly submit this as proof positive… that it is the simple things that make the difference! 😎
