How to disable auto hide the solution explorer (Visual Studio 2017)
(4 answers)
Closed 5 years ago.
I've noticed a new behavior since I updated my Visual Studio to -- I believe 15.4.2.
I like keeping my solution explorer pane pinned and open. When I start debugging, solution explorer pane is closing automatically and even after I stop debugging, it stays closed and unpinned. So I have to manually open and pin it again after each debug which is annoying.
Any idea what's causing this and how to fix it? I really don't want Visual Studio messing with my settings.
Please backup your SUO file and try running:
devenv /Resetsettings

How do you debug classic ASP?
(7 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I've tried all possible ways but not able to debug the classic code. I tried attaching the process to IIS and enabled debug in IIS, tried several steps but still no luck, any help will be very much appreciated.
I've tried all the related articles still no luck so im posting this for more help.
1.Open Visual Studio 2010
2.Open your website in Visual Studio
3.Fire up your web site.
4.In Visual Studio, click ‘Debug’ Menu -> ‘Attach to process’
5.You may need to tick the box labelled ‘Show processes from all users’
6.‘Inetinfo.exe‘ if application protection is low or ”dllhost.exe‘ if application protection is higher. You may get an ‘Attach Security Warning’ popup. If so, continue On. It’s a bit scary at first, but if it’s your own app on your own PC, then you’ll be ok.
7.Add a breakpoint to your code, and navigate to a location where you will hit it.

Code editor appears blank
(10 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
I have been using VS for many years. Today I have encountered a very strange problem with visual studio 2013. Suddenly for some reason I am unable to see any text in the editor window. I've tried reloading the files, redocking each window, restarting VS, restarting my machine and resetting all my settings in Tools -> Import and Export Settings. At present I'm completely stuck as I can't do anything. The tab for each opened file appears at the top as expected but just a blue pane. I'm hoping this is something daft!
I just had the same Problem. However MVVM Light is not installed. I deactivated all extensions that to my knowledge could interfere with the editor and restarted. Problem solved.
Then I reactivated the extensions bit by bit, now all are active again and the problem is still gone.
This was caused by the installation of MVVM Light via the extension manager. I uninstalled it and it went away. Installing the required dlls via nuget didn't have the same issue.
Problem: Visual Studio's "tab wells" or windows are linked/locked in to the primary Visual Studio window and as a result Windows 7 will minimize/show all tab wells and visual studio windows whenever just one of them is clicked. This is very painful when I have code on both of my screens open and then when I try to open up stack overflow on one screen and read that while writing code on my second it will hide the browser in favour of the not-in-use tab well.
Question Remake: Alright, so let me start off by saying that this question has already been asked for VS2012 and Resharper version 7.1 here: Visual Studio 2012: change setting for “Enable floating tab wells”
The problem is I'm using Resharper version 9 and the solution (well more work around tbh) in that other question no longer appears to work.
The bug is caused by a problem with Visual Studio and Resharpers way of mitigating it is to lock the tab wells into the primary client, however according to this bug log here: (RSRP-322167) It appears that the bug is in fact resolved so therefore the work around suggested in the question would be perfect, if only I could get it to work.
After I closed a specific solution and reopened it, it open without any problem but when I tried to edit any document the first keystroke on the code editor cause the visual studio 2010 to become completely unresponsive, and I had to end the program. I tried opening that solution many times but it still hangs till after restarting the PC. any other solution is working fine it is just this solution that cause the problem
You can try to delete the (SolutionName).suo File in the Solution Folder and try to reopen the solution.
Maybe some User Settings of the Solution are corrupted

How can you stop Visual Studio rearranging its Windows when debugging
Whenever I start debugging an application, Visual Studio moves my cheese.
How can I make it leave my cheese alone?
The only solution is that you must arrange things twice. Afterwards it won't move "your cheese" except as you expected it.
Edit: duplicate of How can you stop Visual Studio rearranging its Windows when debugging
This is a "feature" actually. The presumption is that you would want a different layout when debugging (ie, watch windows visible in debug, but not coding). I don't think there's a way to prevent it other than going into debug and manually moving things to match your coding layout.
