How can I build in release in Visual Studio 2010 (C# Express)?

I'm used to VS2008, in which a release build would be built upon pressing F6, or in the开发者_如何学运维 menu Build > Build Solution.

The build menu is gone, and although I can build the solution (through F6), it only builds the debug.

I assume there is some kind of configuration manager now, but I can't find it anywhere.

If you have no Build Menu in Visual Studio 2010 Express, go to the menu Tools -> Settings -> select 'Expert Settings'

---

Right-click solution > Configuration manager. Sorry for not looking more before asking.

Here's an answer to the same question that has not been propagated here yet: https://stackoverflow.com/a/3127008/78162 Namely, you also need to go to Tools->Options->Projects and Solutions and turn on "Show advanced build configurations."
