I'd like to run my console application in a frame inside the Visual Studio environment and not in a separate window with an external prompt like the default behaviour provides. Is that possible?
I'm using Visual Studio 2010 ultimate on a Windows 7 32bit machine.
Try this: In the Visual Studio Options Dialog -> Debugging -> Check the "Redirect All Output Window Text to the Immediate Window".
Maybe this is behavior you'd like.

I have some experience working in VS code and I recently started using Visual Studio 2017. It appears to me that the Quick Launch in Visual Studio (opened by pressing Ctrl+Q) is quite similar to VS Code's Command Palette
(Ctrl+Shift+P). Are they used for the same purposes or is there some significant difference between them?
It looks like the closet analog for VS Code Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) in VS is Command Window (Views -> Other Windows -> Command Window) or Ctrl+Shift+A.
I recently moved to a new PC, and my visual studio is now showing all variables in some sort of memory address mode. Normally I would just see the simple properties and values. I can't figure out how to turn this off and get the standard view.

Aw dude, so simple:
Close all instances of Visual Studio
Right-click on the Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 shortcut and go to its Properties
Go to the Compatibility tab and uncheck "Run this program in compatible mode for:" and say Apply
Now start Visual Studio and open the project. You should be able to debug it.
Is there a way to have more than one Output window open in Visual Studio at the same time?
It is not possible with the built-in Visual Studio settings.
The only workaround would be to develop VS extension which adds an additional custom Output Window maybe.
Is there a Visual Studio 2010 / 11 extension that would somehow monitor all commands that the developer is executing, either via mouse or keyboard, and show them in some window?
For IntelliJ IDEA, there is a plugin that can show keyboard shortcuts for actions executed on manus and toolbars. I am looking for something slightly different but for Visual Studio I couldn't find anything even remotely similar.
Any tips?
I am using VC command-line utilities (cl.exe), and I am getting annoyed by the fact that I have to manually run vcvars32.bat whenever I restart my console... Is there a way to automatically run a batch file on console start-up? Thanks!
P.S: I am using Visual Studio 2010 version on Windows 7.
Check in the start menu under Visual Studio 2010/Tools or thereabouts; there should be a shortcut to a console that automatically runs the batch file.

Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft Visual Studio, point to Visual Studio Tools, and then click Visual Studio Command Prompt.
