how to fix Visual Studio 2012 after installing IE10 on Windows 7?

Question

I recently upgraded my machine to Internet Explorer 10. I use Visual Studio 2012 (VS2012) under Windows 7. Since I upgraded to IE10, VS2012 does not automatically attach to the iexplorer.exe process anymore. And I have 2 entries in the drop down.

Any idea what I should do?

(Yes, I should be upgrading to Win8 and a clean install in the coming months...)

I am not sure if you already found a solution on this but if you select any other browser, in your case select Google Chrome. Then, run your solution, then stop. Change back to Internet Explorer and voila... the other IE entry will be removed and fixes the debugger attach issue. Try it, it worked for me.
