While @don-roby is certainly right about switching browsers, sometimes reality hits hard. Being stuck with IE11 you can disable auto-debugging like so:

  1. Developer Tools (F12)
  2. Debugger (Tab, CTRL-3)
  3. Change Exception Behavior (ie. the second pause symbol near the center of the toolbar – or simply CTRL-SHIFT-E)
  4. Select: Never break on exceptions.

Enjoy the silence.

To disable breaking on exceptions with Internet Explorer 11:

  1. Open F12 Developer Tools
  2. Select the "Debugger" tab
  3. Click on the Stop sign icon
  4. Select "Never break on exceptions"

On the menu, select Tools > Internet Options.

Go to the Advanced tab.

Scroll down to the Browsing section and check the boxes labelled
