When I run my Web Forms application in VS 2022, the designer automatically opens every page I navigate to. So at startup, Site.Master and Login.aspx are automatically opened (the designer displays them in a tab) and VS gains focus. Every effin time I hit one of these pages. Very annoying.
This started a few months back with a VS update. Is there a way to disable this "feature"?

I would however, suggest you check this setting:
tools->options->Web Forms designer.
And then choose this:
In other words, don't use live preview.
