Show the Output Window During Build
Menu: Tools -> Options -> Projects and Solutions -> General

If you don't want the Output Window to show up every time you do a build, you can easily keep it from happening by going to Tools -> Options -> Projects and Solutions -> General and deselect the "Show Output window when build starts" option:
Of course, you can bring up the Output Window anytime by pressing CTRL + ALT + O.

Whenever you have "Show Output window when build starts" enabled, the output window always shows the "Build" in the "Show output from" dropdown. How do you cause the output to default to "Build Order" instead of "Build"?Anonymous
