Main menu disappeared in Visual Studio 2013

I've got a problem with Visual Studio 2013 Professional Edition since this morning. I cannot see the main menu (see screenshot). The only extension installed are "Productivity Power Tools".
I already tried:
devenv /ResetUserData
devenv /ResetSettings
But the main menu keep disappeared...
Any ideas?
Solved: Changed the UI language using devenv /LCID from german to english and backwards and everything works fine! Thx!

Visual Studio 2015 losing settings

My Visual Studio 2015 (RTM) keeps resetting some of my tweaks each time I reopen it (for example Automatic brace completion).
I'm running it in administrator mode and tried devenv /resetsettings and reinstalling but that did not help.
Any ideas how to fix this will be appreciated.
This has been fixed in KB3165756 and the update instructions are found on the same page.

Lost formatting in Visual Studio

I've lost all the color formatting in the source view in Visual Studio and can't get it back. I tried to import a new scheme but nothing helps.
Anyone?
Had this a while ago, these steps fixed it for me.
close all running instances of Visual Studio
open a "Run" window and type in devenv /resetuserdata
edit
perhaps this might work for you, its for 2012 but it might work for 2013
Here is a simple solution. Go to the directory where devenv is (for 2012 RC), and type devenv.exe /setup. It will fix your problem.
devenv.exe is usually in something like C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE.
Edit: It has been suggested that you do this from the Visual Studio command prompt (Start>Microsoft Visual Studio>Tools>Visual Studio Command Prompt), and/or make sure your command prompt has administrator permissions.

Visual Studio 2010 stopped displaying IntelliSense suggestions

I am having an issue with my Visual Studio 2010 IntelliSense, which stopped working recently.
It had worked earlier.
I had gone through the following steps
Visual Studio C# IntelliSense not automatically displaying
but that too not worked on my system.
Here I am attaching the screenshot for your reference,
Thanking in advance
This is a known feature/bug (feature with a bug?), which can be resolved by restarting Visual Studio.
It appears, that this behaviour is shown by Visual Studio if you press Ctrl + Alt + Space.
I'd recommend resetting your setting like Dai suggestested, if a VS-retart does not work.
Additional information:

You can try resetting the visual studio by using visual studio command prompt. take visual studio command prompt and enter this command devenv /resetsettings

Visual Studio 2005 Intellisense stopped working after ReSharper installation

I installed the ReSharper evaluation version and uninstalled it. Afterwards Visual Studio's Intellisense stopped working. I have restarted computer but I still have this problem.
Can anyone please help me here?
I am using Visual Studio 2005. Thanks.
Try opening Visual Studio Command Prompt and entering:
devenv.exe /ResetSettings
Try going to Tools > Options > Text Editor > C# and checking all of the options under Statement completion. I think Resharper disables these upon installation.
Sometimes deleting the ncb file helps. Go to your solution directory and find the sln file, there will also be a file with the same name and the extension ncb. Make sure Visual Studio is closed (at least don't have that project open) and then delete that file. Don't worry Visual Studio will rebuild it for you.
The devenv.exe /ResetSettings was the only thing that worked for me. The full path in command prompt is as follows (for VS 2008)
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE>devenv.exe /ResetSettings
took me a while to find so I thought I'd post this to help
devenv /ResetSettings worked after uninstalling ReSharper. I did not have to do a repair. I did verify that the settings were checked under Text Editor > C#, but ResetSettings was the only thing that worked.
You could try to reset your Visual Studio setting by
End Process devenv.exe from Tast Manager if it is running .(It can close your Browser and Visual Studio)
Run devenv /resetuserdata from Start -> Run
Hope It can help you.
Disable updating intelliSense like in this article:
http://amastaneh.blogspot.com/2007/11/disable-updating-intellisense.html
Eventhough for old version seems to work for me.
I would try a "repair" on the installation first. Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, select Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, click "Change/Remove". It will load up the install dialog and give you the option to do a "repair".
YMMV, but at least it should reset a lot of the VS resources to their "fresh" state.
