Visual Studio 2019 - Step in

I am currently using Visual Studio 2019, when I use the debug method Step In (F11) it prioritizes the command prompt over the actual Visual Studio 2019 program. How do I change it so that it will keep me within Visual Studio 2019 but open the command prompt on the side?

I had the same problem and googled a lot for this, here is the result in short and long story:

The short answer is : use SHIFT + ALT + F5 instead of F5 and the long answer with more details can be found here: Microsoft Documents for Visual Studio 2019

Here is the way to do this with SIMPLE COMBO KEY, It is more simple than first solution :)

  1. Go to Tools menu
  2. Go to Options
  3. Press Ctrl+E and search Keyboard // OR go to Environment>Keyboard
  4. In right side type YOUR LANGUAGE NAME (I am using Python for example ) in search bar(below of "Show commands containing" I mean)
  5. Go down and select the proper result belong your language, ( for Python you can choose "PYTHON.EXECUTEININTERACTIVE" from the results)
  6. Click on the box "Press shortcuts keys:" and specify your combo key.
  7. Be aware that Visual Studio has a lot of default combination and combo keys and do not use any regular shortcut.( I used F8 )
  8. Check the "Use new shortcut in:" and select your place that want to use this shortcut (I suggest to use GLOBAL)
  9. Click Assign > OK > Have Fun
