So, I have installed Visual Studio 17 for my Unreal Engine. I used Visual Studio 15 before. I know that Intellisense takes a lot of time to catch up with Unreal identifiers but I have waited for hours and Intellisense complains even with FName. It shows an error with a red squiggly line which says identifier "......"(<-could be FName,FString,AActor,etc) undefined. I developed the project in VS 15 till now and now I upgraded to VS17 and then I wanted to finish the project in VS17. But now Intellisense is acting weird. Also VS17 can't even open header files located inside a folder.The ones I had already opened in Visual Studio 15 work ok but complain of not being able to open source file. Compiling from the Unreal Engine still shows no error though. And the project runs fine. Attaching 2 pics below highlighting my issues.ALso VS17 also complains about being unable to open source file.
I have tried reinstalling VS17 and even adding /YU for making Intellisense load faster but it still doesn't help.
Also, when I type in Unreal commands, it doesn't even show up the commands or the information for them like their prototype and all the good stuff that Intellisense is supposed to help with.

Sometimes after editing some parts of a razor source file, the editor crashes with tons of errors like the following screenshot:
It fails to recognize these external components from NuGet packages and other source files.
This problem has been around for quite a while. Since it could be simply fixed by reloading the project, I didn't pay much attention to it at first. However, it started to appear frequently recently, I have to reload the project every few minutes, which is really annoying.
Maybe someone has also encountered this problem? It sucks to have to reload the project all the time!
To be mentioned, I'm using ReSharper 2021.3 along with VS2022, but ReSharper's global analyzers still work fine when VS's crashes.
I've had to rebuild my machine lately and lost all the Visual Studio extensions I had installed.
I did have one that displayed error messages inside the code block, but for the life of me I cannot find it on the marketplace.
It does very similar things to this extension:
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=AlexanderGayko.ShowInlineErrors
But the trouble with the extension above, is it writes the error over existing code, which makes it difficult to read.
Okay I've found it myself it's at the following URL

Visual Studio 2019 stopped to suggest Unreal Engine 4 libraries. It used to suggest the names of the heather files I could include in the "name_of_the_new_class.h" file. It used to look like this:
desired state (not my personal screen but that how it used to work), now I get this current state. I reinstalled UE4 and revalidated Visual Studio how do I solve this if that issue is even solvable?
Manually typed in header files work and it will compile and work but why IntelliSense is not suggesting me this .h files?
Using <> instead of "" works and autocompletion works again.

I need some help. I have put in dozens of hours into a VB.NET project, it has been built in release mode and distributed. Now I have to make some changes to it, and I am unable to debug it properly. My code changes result in behavior where my code is not even recognized.
Also, I installed Visual Studio 2013 recently (moving from 2010), but this project behaves the same in both environments.
I believe that my code has become 'optimized'. The error window tells me that code is being skipped over, and that my code is optimized and JIT is checked.
I have turned off JIT, and I have tried everything to make this project work again that I could think of. I am desperately wanting to know how I can get this project to be in a state where it will debug each line of code again when I make changes.
I can even purposely write bad code, and the debugger does not see it.
This project is now in debug mode, not release. I have checked and followed threads on every thing that other people have done to solve this issue, but nothing works for me.
Either my project launches and works properly as it is coded, or if I change any code only the form launches with no code being run - at all.
please help.
I finally figured it out. The applications that I was struggling with were all built in Visual Studio 2010 on Windows 10. I was trying to work with these in Visual Studio 2013 on Windows 7.
Once I tried to work with them on Windows 10 (visual Studio 2013 this time), they started working and debugging just fine.
I think it may have been DLL assembly paths? Took me more than a week, but I figured out my issue by moving from Win7x64 to Win10x64.
Im tearing my hair out with this one Im afraid and am down hours and hours.
Firstly I wanted to install VS Community to use with Unity. Im running windows 8.1 pro.
But I had trouble installing. Long story short there were some fonts in windows\fonts that the VS installer didnt like. So I moved the fonts and the installer ran through successfully. I then installed the VS 2013 Tools for Unity.
So then I imported the Unity VS tools to my project. Now my unity project hangs when unity opens. I fixed unity by removing the Unity VS stuff form the project directory.
I started getting errors on screen that said "An unhandled exception System.Configuration.ConfigurationErrorsException) occurred in ZAPrivacyService.exe[3168]
The Just In Time Debugger was launched without necessary security permissions etc etc
Also the above error message appears very frequently and even if i ignore the dialogue it just keeps popping up every minute or so. I just off the JIT prompts but then I get an error message saying that no JIT is available. instead of the other error message. ZAPrivacyService seems to be part of ZoneAlarm. So I downloaded and reinstalled it. No joy. I tried uninstalling the Unity VS tools. I then went to Programs and Features to remove VS. However when I click on VS I only get the option to change. So I click change and the VS splash screen briefly appears. Then nothing. I also tried rerunning the VS installer(from the ISO and the web exe) and the same thing happens.
I do want to get VS running I thought a reinstall could fix it. But not to even be able to reinstall.....
Also how can I set Vs to ignore everything except the projects im working on IN VS?
Any ideas????
Thanks
