Selecting the "Trace" command will launch Nsight Systems, create a new Nsight Systems project and apply settings from the current Visual Studio project: * target application path * command line parameters * working folder

If the "Trace" command has already been used with this Visual Studio project then Nsight Systems will load the respective Nsight Systems project and any previously captured trace sessions will be available for review using the Nsight Systems project explorer tree.
