Completely remove "error list" from visual studio
I think this is probably exactly what you're wanting:

You can change this behavior by going to Tools -> Options -> Projects and Solutions -> General and deselecting the "Always show Error List if build finishes with errors".
I'm guessing this will work with ASP.Net as well, since that's building on the fly.
I am using Visual Studio 2017, and I also have to cope with the useless, impossible-to-disable, annoyingly-in-your-face, and outright disturbing "Error List" window.
So, here is what I did:
- Undock the "Error List" window to make it free-floating.
- Resize it to the smallest size possible.
- Move it out to some remote area of the screen where it is not so annoying.
And voila, problem solved ! (*1)
*1 Well, problem mostly solved. It will be completely solved when I abandon this dinosaur of an IDE.
