Yet, has anyone tried whether ReSharper is working properly after installing SP1?
Wonder if I should install Service Pack 1 right away or rather wait for an update of ReSharper or any official statement from JetBrains. Since for me VisualStudio without ReSharper already feels like coding with Notepad. :)
I've just installed SP1 a few hours age and R# works just fine a far as I noticed.
Visual Studio is crashing for me now after installing SP1. Not really sure what's up with that. Looks like it has to do with Resharper from what I can tell.
Edit: Actually, looks like dotCover was having the issue.

This one is a little hard to explain without a picture:
As you can see the window is all messed up. I tried to re-install VS and un-install ReSharper but nothing worked. I'm using VS 2015 Community. This is a really frustrating bug to work with, has anyone else run into this?
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
I knew about RockScroll at this blog, I downloaded it to run on Visual Studio 2010, but it doesn't seem to work with VS 2010.
What might be the problem? Doesn't RockScroll v1 work with VS 2010?
If so, what would be an alternative?
If not, what might be wrong?
The Productivity Power Tools now include a scroll bar similar to RockScroll/MetalScroll as described by #shaunmartin in another question:
Alternatives are MetalScroll and AllMargins.
I haven't tried MetalScroll. I installed AllMargins, and it's neat, but I can't say its been very useful.
RockScroll doesn't work with VS2010. Last I checked, there were a couple of somewhat-similar-looking extensions on the VS Gallery, though I don't know if any work with VS2010 and the new editor. I know at MS a couple of VS folks are working on a new RockScroll-like VSIX in their free time, for possible inclusion in a future version of the Pro Power Tools, though I haven't heard anything about it in the last couple months.
I have installed Visual Studio 2010 Professional (final version), with some components, plug-ins and templates I use a lot. Recently, I been checking all the things that the Ultimate version has, and I've been wondering,
Can I just run the VS2010 ultimate installer and it upgrade the Sku, letting me use all of its features along with the previous plug-ins (like telerik rad controls, Deklarit for VS2010, and VS.php)??
Thanks in advance
Just for records, looks like everything worked pretty well.... And the answer to my own question is: Yes, you can Upgrade the Sku of Visual Studio 2010
Just to confirm that the upgrade path worked for me:
I simply ran the setup program for Ultimate without uninstalling Professional. It installed in less than an hour taking with it all of my settings, plugins and extentions & resharper came across also :)
Very Impressed ! :)
Yes, it works, I also upgraded Professional to Ultimate. Have to mention, that while updating I was not able to change the path for additional components. But ugrade works.
Does Visual Studio 2010 RC play nicely with Visual Studio 2008?
I am wondering if I need to setup a Virtual Machine to play with VS 2010 or if I can just install it on my Dev machine.
If it messes up VS 2010 then that is sad but ok. If it messed up VS 2008 then I would be in trouble.
Has anyone tried this out? Does it work well? Poorly?
Thanks for any answers.
I've had no problems. Microsoft has designed the last several versions of Visual Studio to be able to co-exist side-by-side.
That said, VS 2010 is an RC, so it is still a pre-release. And even after it goes RTM, it's still a complex product and like any complex software install there can be bugs. I wouldn't expect serious problems, but there's always the fraction of a percent that do run into issues. So I'd still plan to install it on a day when you'd have cycles to deal with potential issues (if nothing else, installing it on my machine that hadn't had OS updates installed in a while required at least 2 reboots).
Yes this works and is a supported scenario. My advice is to install 2008 first then 2010. This is the setup i have on multiple computers.
has worked for me without any issues so far. I would follow JaredPar's advice though, install 2008 first, then 2010.
I never trust the "plays nice with others" claims because I've been bit by it before. They supposedly co-exist, but I still put it in a VM.
See this blog post.
Visual Studio 2010 / .NET Framework 4 RC Ready for General Download
I haven't installed it on my machine but my manager has and after we looked at it we decided it's best not to go there yet for two reasons:
1) We have to go through the whole conversion process again, which after our experience with 1.1 -> 2.0 wasn't very enticing.
2) We caused an error within the first couple minutes of playing around that worked fine on VS2008 leading us to believe it's not quite ready for primetime yet anyways. (It was adding a method in the class diagram that caused VS to crash for some reason).
Just my two cents though.
edit: I just found another great example, fifth one down: http://thedailywtf.com/Articles/Tell-a-programmer.aspx
I've had no problems either. And I didn't with VS2010 beta 2 and VS2008 either.
I have both of them on my machine, so far no problems
I havent go into too much testing with my VS 2008 projects in 2010, but it does look like it works fine with VS 2010 RC.
Also, both versions seem to run fine on my machine. (I have also VS 2003 on my local as well)
Bearing in mind its the Release Candidate version, is should be very reliable in this area.
I've run into an error with IIS and VS2010 -- it's solved by re-running the .NET 3.5 version of aspnet_regiis.

I installed 2010 with 2008 already installed. I had tons of hangs, crashes and general malfunctions. Reinstalling 2008 didn't help until I removed every trace of 2010 from registry.
I've installed 2010 with 2008 on this machine for silverlight development.. I haven't noticed any problems except for file associations all goto the 2010 version rather than what I'd prefer opened in 2008 by default. (2010 to me is much slower than 2008)
