We all know when we need to recycle and get web app restarted we can edit the web.config file. Sometime we(developers) even do dummy change to force it restart.
But what if you don't want to recycle it, but want to update the web.config file anyway. For example I had a situation where I want to update the web.config file, but didn't wanted to recycle/restart the web app immediately, because users were using it heavily. I just needed to do the web.config update now and restart the web app later (out of working hours).
That's when I heard the setting called - "Disable Recycling for Configuration Changes".
This setting can be found in "Advanced Settings" section of an app pool. So this only effective to one app pool at a time.
Default value for this is "False".
Setting this to true will cause app pool to NOT to restarts/recycle when web.config changes.
