The extension was working property until I updated my Visual Studio

Same for me with VS Version 15.7.5. Would realy appreciate a fix :)

Edit: The update seems to disable the Browserlink option. After reactivation, the plugin will work properly. Maybe this also solves this problem for 15.8.X.

Hey, if you really want to reload on save and this extension isn't working, try this AHK script:

#SingleInstance, force #NoEnv #Warn

#IfWinActive, ahk_exe devenv.exe ^s:: { Send, ^s Send, ^!{Enter} } return

#IfWinActive

when you save, it'll automatically do the ctrl+alt+enter command.

VS2019 - It's July and browser is not reflecting changes...

@minanabila I guess you can write the script with https://www.autohotkey.com/

In Addition to all others who are looking for a solution - did you try to reset the browser-link function? It solved the issue for me and the Plugin works properly (not tested in VS2019)
