I cant find restart button in Visual Studio - visual-studio

When i open Visual Studio i see on the top buttons: File, Edit, Selection, View, Go, Debug, Taks and Help. Whatever button i opened i couldnt find any restart button. I searched on the google and also on this website what should i do. I got few same answers- that i should download some sort of restart extension (i am new in programming, so im not quite sure what is the name of it). When i dowloaded it and inserted it in Visual Studio, there was this sentence thats says that VS wont open the file because its too large ( i think that there were another 2 reasons ). I googled that and still couldnt find anything helpful. In all of this searching i found out that this is might connected to option tools
and customize
but i cannot find them aswell. Can anyone tell me roughly what might be the problem? Thanks! :)

If you're looking for some way to restart visual studio, say after installing some plugins, all you need to do is Close and Re-Open it. There is no specific restart button

visual studio go to previous edit locations

I am trying to stop using ReSharper we got too slow for me. One functionality that seems missing is the ability to navigate through the previous edit locations. Is that not available?
There is Ctrl+Shift+Bkspce for Edit.GoToLastEditLocation but I can't seem to be able to go further.

Button "Start Without Debbuging" doesn't do anything

I am using Visual Studio 2019. I wrote whole my program in c++ but when I want to try it and start the program without debbuging it doesn't do anything. I had same issue for more times but when I restarted visual studio the problem was fixed. But now I tried restarting VS, searching for help on the internet but I didn't find anything.
I am just begginer in VS so I don't know how should I fix it. Thanks for help.
Below are the instructions to fix this for projects that start as an "empty project". This fixed the issue for me.
"Please right-click your project name and go to Properties page, please expand Configuration Properties -> Linker -> System, please select Console (/SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE) in SubSystem dropdown. Because, by default, the Empty project does not specify it."

VS does not automatically run whatever is in your code window. You must go to Solution Explorer and identify which code to run by right clicking and setting it as the startup file.

Visual Studio hands when adding new file to source control

I have been working in both Visual Studio 2015 and 2017 with TFS 2015.
I will often have issues where, when I add a new file, the window pops up to add the file to TFS automatically, but it just sets there. I try to click Cancel, and it just sits there saying "Canceling...". I end up having to kill the process and reopen. It usually works for a little bit after that.
None of my coworkers, using the same versions of VS and TFS, have this issue.
Any help would be appreciated. It is starting to get exhausting to deal with.
Try to clear the version control cache on your machine. It should be located in:
C:\Users\<yourusername>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Team Foundation\. There will be numbered folders (6.0, 7.0, etc) in there, with Cache subfolders. Try deleting all of those.
It's going to be very difficult to give a definitive answer; the best anyone can give you are suggestions.

Can't publish application in Visual Studio 2013

I have a very weird problem. In Visual Studio 2013 I working on an application for sorting and renaming files. It is not done yet, but I wanted to show it to some other people on another PC. I have tried almost every menu in every possible context but I simply can't find the publishing wizard or any other tool for that. Normally I should just do a right click on the project and have the option "Publish..." there, right? I have also tried the build menu. All I get is "Build", "Rebuild", "Clean" and "Code analysis". No option for publishing. Maybe I am just stupid and forgot to configure something? It seems like the word "publish" has completely vanished from the whole program. I have seen screenshots and in my VS the option is simply missing. Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?
I also tried adding an installer project, but then it just tells me that there was some kind of an error. No further information. Just "an error occured".
Any help will be appreciated! :)
Your application after build is in YourProject\bin\Release\ or YourProject\bin\Debug\ path.

Visual Studio 2010 Find and Replace dialog on dual monitors is whacked

Is anyone else having issues with the find and replace dialog in Visual Studio 2010?
For as many improvements that have been made for multi monitor support is VS, this is making me crazy.
Whenever I open up the Find and Replace dialog in VS 2010, it often straddles the two monitors. The other dialogs, like Navigate To seem to always work.
Is this making anyone else go a little batty, or is it just me?
Anyone have a fix? Find and Replace VS extension?
Update:
There is a hotfix out for this issue now (KB2268081):
http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/Downloads
The Find and Replace dialog is now dockable. Dock it with the Properties window, as a good place to start.
Yeah, I noticed the same, it can get pretty annoying.
Based on feedback in Microsoft Connect this is a known issue that should be fixed for VS 2010 SP1.
Source:(1,2)
You may try to use Actual Window Manager (http://www.actualtools.com/windowmanager/) to manage The Find and Replace dialog. Just create a specific rule to save size and position of the dialog and The Find and Replace dialog will appear at the same plase as you closed it last time.
Open Extension Manager - VS2010,
Download and install 2 extensions of the most downloads.
And restart your VS, you will find that Find and replace box will just like VS2012
