Hi Jaya,

Welcome to MSDN forum.

As far as I know, the following steps could add the control to toolbox without restarting pc.

If you create Custom Controls in the solution of your project, after you build the project, the control will appear in the toolbox automatically without restarting your pc.

Besides, you could get it without restarting pc by the following steps:

1. In the Toolbox, select the tab where you want to add the control.
2. Right-click the Toolbox and select Choose Items from the shortcut menu.
3. The Choose Toolbox Items dialog box opens. The following illustration shows the Choose Toolbox Items dialog box.
4. In the list, locate the control you want to use.
5. If the control you want to use does not appear in the list, click the Browse button. In the Open dialog box, navigate to the assembly that contains the control you want to use. Select the assembly and click Open.
6. Any controls contained in the assembly appear in the Choose Toolbox Items dialog box.
7. Add a check mark next to the control you want to add, and then click OK.
8. The selected control appears at the bottom of the selected tab in the Toolbox.

From the Toolbox, drag the control onto the design surface. The selected control appears on the design surface. Also, the control's assembly is added as a project reference, and an XML namespace mapping is added to the XAML file.

If I misunderstand you, please provide more detailed information about “configure toolbox”.
