Disable C++ PDB generation from the IDE

First thing first - this is not recommended to disable .PDB generation, even for a Release Build!

Anyway, you just need to go:

• Linker -> Debugging -> Generate Debug Info, and set it to No

You can remove it manually:

Step 1. Compiler.

• Selected "Configuration Properties > C/C++ > General > Debug Information Format"
• Hit DEL

Step 2. Linker.

Also you need to disable generating Debug info for Linker

• Selected "Configuration Properties > Linker > Debugging> Generate Debug Info" set to No

Step 3. Profiler.

• Also set "Profile" to "No" in Linker > Advanced or you may still see PDB files generated!
