By default, when we debug web applications, Visual Studio launches a new browser window which obviously uses cache, cookies and all the rest of the previous sessions.

Obviously this sometimes wastes some time, especially when working with applications that have SSO or, as in my case, applications that use the login on Azure Active Directory.

To overcome this problem, we can go to change the settings of Visual Studio and add the parameters necessary to launch browsers in "Incognito" mode so as to have a new browser session each time, as if it were at its first use without carrying anything saved.

Basic configuration

To access the browser configuration, click on the arrow next to the default browser and then on "Browse With" and add the browsers by clicking on "Add"
