Disable Visual Studio green arrow button moving instruction pointer


Recently Visual Studio is displaying a green arrow while debugging, when hovering with the mouse.

If you click on it it moves the instruction pointer to that line, I think.

Is there a way to disable this feature?


Solution

  • Run execution to here can be disabled the following way:

    Tools -> Options -> Debugging -> General

    And unticking Show Run to click button while debugging.

    This is in VS Community 2019, slight variations can occur in other versions.
