Exit
Option to hard exit the query on finish.
From my understanding there is no such option today.The only option is to exit the current query when a new one starts. Ex. "Util.NewProcess" or "Always use Fresh Process per Execution".
The problem I get is that if I have a "unstoppable" background worker, this will still be running in the background until I start a new query.
The workaround is to use a "try/finally" with a "Environment.Exit(0);" , however this seems hackish. Also tried "Util.KeepRunning" but that did not help.
This is a big issue if more than one query…

Jumping to #load file should consider preceding #load(s)
If my file contains multiple loads
load "filea.cs"
load "fileb.cs"
Then, if I jump to fileb.cs, then types from filea.cs should be available when viewing fileb.cs.
This without adding #load statements to fileb.cs, of course. The viewing of fileb.cs should somehow be in context of myquery.linq.

Use a Newer File Type When Exporting to Excel
Currently, LINQPad v5 and v7 both use the "Web Pages and Excel 2003 XML Spreadsheets" file type (format) when exporting data to Excel from the LINQPad Results pane. Under non-regulated conditions, it is possible to open Excel's Trust Center and authorize the "Web Pages and Excel 2003 XML Spreadsheets" file type (Trust Center -> File Block Settings). However... many companies must abide by security posturing in today's environment. As such, security policy auditors such as Tenable have identified that this file type format should be BLOCKED from opening in Excel (https://www.tenable.com/audits/items/CIS_Microsoft_Office_Excel_2016_v1.0.1.audit:29268ad4a1c7bb369b13db79d95af0ef). Unfortunately (or fortunately, however you look at…

Add an option to disable auto-recovery
Sometimes scripts can contain information that you do not want to be saved to disk. You write the script with a placeholder for that information and then when you come to use it later you overwrite the placeholder, run the script and close it without saving... except it turns out that LINQPad 7's auto-recovery is saving copies of the sensitive information to disk every 10 seconds. If you're running from an SSD then its wear-levelling mechanism makes it tricky to remove that information from the SSD, simply overwriting and then deleting the file is not enough.
I know that LINQPad…

Add support for HierarchyId
Please add support for HierarchyId, I was expecting this to be available in LINQpad 8, as it was included in the latest version of EF Core.

Allow users to add UI scripts as menu options
It would allow users to include interactive scripts in a dropdown menu, similar to the interactive regex utility. Clicking on a script would run it in the background, and the result area would automatically maximize, displaying interactive controls.

Show more file types in the My Queries tab
By default, LINQPad seems can only shown *.linq, *.json, *.csv and *.txt files in a folder. I'd like to show more file types especially some other text file types such as *.md.

Add option to close results rather than just hide results tab
Despite using LinqPad nearly every day, I can never seem to remember that the X at the top right of results tab means hide and does NOT mean "close results and free up memory". And yes I know the tooltip says 'Hide Results' and not 'Close Results' , but this never seems to stick in my memory.
Can't think of a single time when I have used the Ctrl-R Show Results option.
Would be possible, either to have another button to close, or an option to configure what the X button does?

Show elapsed time per executed line
While running through a script I can already see the yellow arrow jump from line to line at execution. It would be awesome to see how much time elapsed for each line after a run.
If this has too much of a performance impact it could be made toggleable. A similar feature that's already present in Visual Studio: Show the elapsed time between two breakpoints being hit.
Currently the only way to get this information (as far as I'm aware) is to add Stopwatches all over the code (C# Statements).

Assembly load latency warning enhancement
When I start LINQPad, I see a warning about assembly load times, suggesting that virus scanners are usually to blame.
This is a great feature that reveals otherwise hidden performance pitfalls. I would suggest that the message continue with one or two sentences about possible resolutions.
For example, virus scanners often allow a directory to be excluded from real-time scanning. Which directories might be added to improve assembly load times?
The software might also suggest searching online for higher-performance virus scanners, without recommending any in particular.1 vote -
run standalone via command line args
I’m aware that there is a suggestions to create an EXE, but in leu of that feature. Can we get the ability to pass a command line argument to Linqpad.exe have it run and only show the results window. If any of the nuget packages or linked files are not found, throw an error message.
I'm assuming this would not be a hard lift since there is a second window option already, which is essentially what I’m asking for minus toolbar. I think this could also open the door to someone to package everything into an Exe, maybe a manifest…

display colums in alphabetical order
I would like to have my "display colums in alphabetical order back" in the right button quick menu. Now it is only possible for the whole connection, which is frankly a pain... Is this an unintended regression, or are other limitations at play ?
Anyway, keep up the great work,

DumpAsync
It would be great if the following extension methods could be built-in to LINQPad. Currently I have them in my personal extensions, but it prevents me from sharing LINQPad scripts with colleagues without adding them directly into the scripts before sending them.
Thanks for the amazing product!!
…public static async Task<T> DumpAsync<T>(this Task<T> task) => (await task).Dump(); public static async Task<T> DumpAsync<T>(this Task<T> task, string description) => (await task).Dump(description); public static async Task<T> DumpAsync<T>(this Task<T> task, int depth) => (await task).Dump(depth); public static async Task<T> DumpAsync<T>(this Task<T> task, string description, int depth) => (await task).Dump(description, depth); public static async Task<T>1 vote -
Elegantly catch connection errors when a connection on a machine does not exist
When I open a script file on a different machine (synchronizing the LINQPad Query folder using OneDrive), and the other machine does not have the same database servers and connections available, I need to push a lot of error dialog screens away (I use Npgsql tot connect tot PostgreSQL databases). It would be wonderful if an elegant way of letting know the connection could not be established was created, like colorizing the connection toolbar button. I guess this issue relates to 'Disable automatic server connection', however on the primary development machine I do want the connection to populate.

Keep the working directories consistent between versions.
Some organizations have Carbon Black to monitor and block unauthorized code execution. I had previously whitelisted the intermediate directories for LinqPad, but the newest version uses different directories so everything needed to be whitelisted again. The people who configure these monitors aren't always the brightest or most responsive to requests, so it would be best to keep the paths consistent, so they don't need to be reconfigured for each future version.

Have a Uri be clickable in Dump(), also when an individual object is dumped
I defined a class that contains a Uri as a property (see below)
When I Dump() a list of objects of this class, the Uri is clickable and the browser directly runs the internet browser and directs it to the desired site. When I Dump() an individual object, the link is shown as a string and not clickable. I would like to have it vclickable as well.
Sample property definition code:
…public Uri? ProjectItemLink { get { Uri? result = null; if (_project != null) { result = new Uri( _project.Server + "/" + _project.Command + "/" + Key );1 vote -
Bug fix: prop <tab> <tab> shortcut only works on the first property of a class
How to reproduce: New query, C# Program. Below Main() create a new class public class test. After the open {, type prop <tab>. You will see public int MyProperty { get; set; } as expected. Go the the end of the line and press return. On the new line, type prop <tab>. You will see PropertyAttributes in error. As a test, Visual Studio 2022 performs correctly. This shortcut is very helpful when adding many properties to a class.
