Iis Express Immediately Shutting-Down Running Site After Stopping Web Application

IIS Express Immediately shutting-down running site after stopping web application

I recently faced a similar situation when suddenly my IIS Express stopped right after I stopped debugging. This happened after I turned on "Enable Edit and Continue". So if you disable this you will see that IIS Express stays running even after debugging is stopped.

Right click your project > click Properties > select the 'Web' tab on the left > uncheck the Enable Edit and Continue checkbox.

IIS Express stops suddenly when I click on a text box in my web app

I was having same Problem with Visual Studio (15.7.5) & Firefox Developer Edition (62.0b12). Every time i click any input or text field it just closes both Firefox and IIS without any error or exception.

What i've done to fix this issue is i Simply Uncheck the option:

Stop Debugger when browser window is closed

found under Tools > Options > Projects and Solutions > Web Projects

save, clean, Build & Start.

This one Fix my Problem!

Stop IIS Express exiting automatically

The trick is to right click on your website and View -> View in Browser (or just View in Browser for Visual Studio 2012).

This will start the website in IIS Express and keep it running, not dependent on a debugging session being run.

After installing VS 2015 Update 2, IIS Express closes when I stop debugging

This issue has been resolved in Visual Studio 2015 Update 3. Read the release notes here.

Web Developer Tools

For ASP.NET Web Application projects, when "Enable Edit and Continue" checkbox is unchecked, the IIS Express process will no longer stop
every time you stop debugging.

Why does IIS Express shut down the Application and restart it all the time?

Found it. My code lives in the Dropbox folder, and apparently Dropbox changes something inside the web project's bin folder.

When I deactivate Dropbox, the problem goes away.

IIS Express crashes when starting a site from visual studio

In your project folder find the hidden .vs folder and delete it. This solved the problem for me.

My web application continues to run after stopping the debugger.

As far as I know, Visual Studio just does this sometimes and there's not anything you can do about it. If it's happening consistently I would try reinstalling and/or reverting to older versions to see if the issue persists.
