I recently downloaded resharper 7 for vs 2010 while my company sorted out my license. I finally got a license, so tried to enter it via the resharper dialog. It stated I had a resharper 6 license, so it was not valid for 7.
I uninstalled v7 and installed v6. However, now I cannot see resharper anywhere within vs. There is no resharper option in the tools > options and it is not in help > About MS VS.
I have tried the normal things, such as repairing the installation, rebooting etc, but to no joy.
Any pointers on what to try would be great.

I am trying to install Resharper 10.0.2 with VS 2013, I have completed the setup but still unable to see any menu item related to Resharper also found nothing in tools > options. I am running Windows 7.
I wants to rename my files and master pages in my running project with all references. I have read that resharper will do it properly, is there any other way or help me installing Resharper.
I was running Visual Studio 2013 with Resharper 8, and everything was fine and dandy untill I tried to install Jetbrain's Dottrace trial version. It brought with it something called Resharper Ultimate, which in turn made sure none of my Intellisense or Resharper features worked.
So I uninstalled Resharper Ultimate using the Windows uninstall feature. But Visual Studio seems to still consider it installed, because its options appears in the program's preferences dialog. Not to mention the top menu choice.
I have also tried installing Resharper 8 anew, in hopes that it will cleanse my machine of Ultimate, but it detects no previous installs. So now, I'm getting options dialogs for both Resharper and Resharper Ultimate. And none of the features work.
Plus I'm getting this error message when opening a solution with Resharper active:
I have looked at the mentioned XML file, but am not sure of what to make of it.
The solution from ReSharper Support Site:
To completely remove new .NET tools from Visual Studio, please try the
following:
Run ReSharper 9.x (new .NET Tools) installer once again - do you have
any products with status Repair? If so, please select Remove for them
and select Skip for others. If there are no items with Repair action,
please remove the following folder manually C:\Users{User
Name}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio{Visual Studio
version}\Extensions\JetBrains
I would try to clean the registry as per this article.
At the top of the blog post, there is a continuation of this story which describes fow to finalize the fix of the issue you experience by removing manifest and package definitions of your VS extensions.
Hope it helps
As described in some other Q/As like this and this, IntelliTrace is a Visual Studio Ultimate feature only. But for some reason I have Visual Studio Professional 2013 (Version 12.0.30723.00 Update 3) and I have IntelliTrace on it. I don't know how it got there but it shows up in Quick Launch (Ctrl+Q) and is enabled from View -> Toolbars -> IntelliTrace. I told my colleague to use it and he didn't have it on his VS Pro! Do you have any clues why IntelliTrace is available on my VS 2013 Pro installation? I see comments from other people, such as #doglin here that he has the same.
I remember I had VS Ultimate trial installed before I installed VS Pro but can it be from there?
I have the same, it looks like a bug in Visual Studio. Installing Ultimate Trial add IntelliTrace feature to Professional edition.
see UPDATE below before you try this
I can confirm that I added IntelliTrace to VS2012 Pro by doing the following:
VS2012 installed with latest SP plus addins.
Install VS2012 Ultimate 30 day trial (about 30 minutes)
{not sure if I was forced to reboot here - If I was asked I rebooted}
Started VS2012 Ultimate (about 10 minutes)
Opened one of my projects and confirmed that IntelliTrace was working.
Uninstalled VS2012 Ultimate.
Rebooted as suggested by the uninstaller.
Started VS2012. It reverted back to Pro, with Intellitrace still present, add ins working. Only the changes I made to the IDE were lost (window positions, toolbars etc)
I now have IntelliTrace in VS2012 :)
--- UPDATE ---
I tried this and initially it appeared to work. But...
I could not longer create test projects and I had some test projects that failed to load. I tried many things and Googled the hell out of it. In the end, to restore VS 2012 to a working state, I uninstalled VS and reinstalled it.
I did not get IntelliTrace for free :(
I've been using Resharper (v8.0.14.856) with VS2012 for some time now, but I've recently installed VS2013. However, Resharper does not appear in the menus for VS2013, or in the options (under Tools->Options).
I've re-run the installer, and selected VS2013. As far as the
installer is concerned, it is installed for VS 2013.
I've tried repairing the install.
I've tried deleting the
%AppData%Roaming\JetBrains folder (as suggested elsewhere).
I've read this:
http://resharper-support.jetbrains.com/entries/21204867-ReSharper-is-not-available-in-Visual-Studio-after-installation and I've tried running Visual Studio with /resetskippkgs command line
key.
I am an administrator, so I've run the installer as administrator, and I run VS2013 as administrator.
I've tried running in Compatibility mode for Windows 7
I've also tried contacting JetBrains, but have yet to receive a reply
Note. I don't have an "\Common7\IDE\Extensions" folder, but I don't have one for my VS2012 install either, and Resharper works just fine there.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?
You need 8.1 to work with VS2013.

I had the same issue. I Googled around and found a blog post explaining how to add a previously installed Resharper to various newly installed versions of Visual Studio on your machine via the Windows Control Panel.
The article outlines these steps...
Go to 'Control Panel' and select 'Programs and Features'.
Select 'JetBrains ReSharper' and click on 'Change'.
The ReSharper Setup main dialog will appear, here click on 'Change'.
The ReSharper Setup integration options dialog will appear, check the Visual Studio version that that you wish to enable ReSharper in. Click 'Install'.
Here is the original blog post...

I've read articles that explain how to enable Visual Studio 2010 managed extensions to get them working with Microsoft Visual Studio 11 Developer Preview
Running VS2010 Gallery Extensions In VS11, Meet Git Source Control Provider
However I haven't been able to apply the same logic to Resharper. Although it's a managed extension now, it doesn't appear to be packaged in a VSIX file, so I can't follow all the steps in the above mentioned article.
No (For R#6.0)
Whilst I can't find an official looking page on JetBrain's resharper web site, I did find a reply from a JetBrain's engineer
The upcoming ReSharper 6.1 will have initial experimental support for Visual
Studio vNext.
http://devnet.jetbrains.net/message/5320971#5320971
Yes (For R#6.1)
Resharper 6.1 has now got experimental support for Visual Studio 11, albeit via a separate download to the normal 6.1 installer: http://www.jetbrains.com/resharper/download/index.html#related
Blog post explaining the current level of support in VS11: http://blogs.jetbrains.com/dotnet/2011/12/christmas-is-here-resharper-61-dotcover-12-and-dottrace-452-released/
Resharper 6.0 does not support VS11.
The nightly builds of Resharper 6.1 though are now available, and do support VS11.

Update 2:
Since VS11 has been fully released as VS 2012, Resharper has released final version 6.1 (free for 6.0 owners), and 7.x for it already and they're working just nice. Wrote this update as the answer still gets up-votes (thank you).
