'What is the Visual Studio Project setting to prevent an application from launching after a build or rebuild?

I have a home grown project (https://github.com/andybantly/MFC-Fractal) that I have been working on since the Visual Studio 2005/2008 days. I just recently put it in Git. Its home is on CodeProject.

I am not sure when this started (maybe 10 years ago...) but when I migrated my application to the latest version of Visual Studio, new/odd behavior injected itself into the code generation step. The IDE has somehow decided that when I build the source that I really wanted to build and run the source. This is somewhat annoying, especially during a batch rebuild all.

I am looking for helpful suggestions on configuring the IDE to prevent this behavior. It never used to do this out of the box.

Is it a show stopper? Absolutely not. Is it annoying? Depends on the side of bed I woke up on.
