New SDK project missing "Start External Command" in visual studio

Old .NET Projects have an option under debug that allows "Start External Command" as shown in this figure

When I create a new project using the new SDK style, I can't see the same option (as the figure below). Is there a way to get it back?

  • Both pictures were taken from the same VS (so it is not version specific)
  • A workaround that I found is running the program normally and attach to it but it is not convenient.

In the Launch Profiles window, you have a "new profile" icon in the top left hand corner. If you click that, a menu opens and lets you choose either a Project or an Executable File. If you choose the later, you get the option back for which you were looking.

The "new start profile" menu
