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.

So I tried and tried googling about this, but I can't seem to see a list of all the improvements in Visual Studio after VS2010. The reason for this is so that I'll be able to recommend our dev team to upgrade hopefully to VS2017, but if purchasing budget does not allow it, at least to something newer than 2010 because of course of new features. But I'm not familiar with any aside from the obvious look of the IDE which is now very different from 2010. I'm sure there's already a lot we're missing on the latest VS has to offer. Help will be really appreciated thanks!
I have just installed VS 2013 RC2 and TypeScript refactoring stopped working. It disappeared from context menu, and pressing Ctrl+R, Ctrl+R gives the following error message:
The key combination (Ctrl+R, Ctrl+R) is bound to command (.Refactor.Rename) which is not currently available.
I have tried restarting VS, didn't help. Any ideas, workarounds?
Edit:
I have submitted a bug to Microsoft. Please upvote it if you have the same issue:
https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/860463/typescript-refactoring-stopped-working-in-vs-2013-rc2
Microsoft posted the following answer to my question on MS Connect. Seems that while refactor/rename was available in VS Express Edition with TypeScript 0.9, in TypeScript 1.0 it's only available from VS Pro upwards.

Thank you for reporting this issue.
Refactor/rename and NavigateTo are features that are found in the Pro+
versions of TypeScript in Visual Studio 2013. The Pro+ tools are aimed
at helping users work with larger codebases, so there is a focus on
building up tools to help support those codebases in those versions of
Visual Studio. We're working to continue to refine to make the
experience best across both Express and Pro+, with the right features
to help users who want to learn TypeScript and those who want to move
to using TypeScript in larger projects.
For me it happened because of resharper conflict. I uninstalled resharper and restarted visual studio

What are people replacing the missing C++/CLI Intellisense in VS 2010 with?
I downloaded and installed Visual C++ 2010 Express, today. To my shock and horror, a variable's dot was not followed with anything, an error at the bottom status bar reading:
"Intellisense: Unavailable for C++/CLI"
So... that being the case, is there an alternative to Intellisense that I can find and use? Other stackoverflow questions addressed the possibly broken nature of Intellisense. From what I've read, though:
They suggest Visual Assist. Visual Assist's free trial, as I just downloaded, is not compatible with VC++ 2010 Express.
They talk about manipulating Visual C++ itself somehow, usually through the deleting of a .ncb file. Do any of you know where this file is located? If so, that's one answer I'm hoping for -- maybe it'll fix intellisense!
Thanks! Of course, feel free to chime in with any other ideas!
Yes, VS 2010 doesn't support C++/CLI Intellisense. The VS team promised it would come with an update, but I'm quite sure we won't see it. Too bad, C++/CLI is amazing for creating bridge classes between C++ and C#/VB/any other .NET managed laguage.
Visual Assist X indeed brings it back, but since VS Express editions don't support extensions, you have three options:
1) Live without Intellisense
2) Get VS Professional or better (if you are student, you can get it from MSDNAA for free)
3) Downgrade to Visual C++ 2008 Express
Just use Visual Studio 2008.
It's a simple matter of which feature you find more important. Pick only one:
Multiple monitor support
Intellisense for C++/CLI projects
I know vs2008 express didn't. I'm hoping this will change with vs2010. Anyone know? Link me?
Edit:
Anyone have a primary source? While "As far as I know" answers can be helpful, in this case it still leaves a possibility - which is exactly where I started.
I don't know, but I would guess that it would not. Microsoft wants to make money, and supporting ad-ins is one of the biggest reasons to pony up the dough for the standard edition. Ad-in support alone can replace a lot of the stuff that you pay for, like SVN and other source control integration, test framework integration, resharper, etc.
I know this is an old question, but it came up on a search for "Visual Studio 2012 Express Add-ins".
Here is a quote from a post by Ryan Molden (MSFT) on the Visual Studio forums:
"Express does not support AddIns. The reason it has the extension manager is that it supports project/item templates."
My experience is that the same applies to Visual Studio 2012 Express.
As far as I know, the policy regarding Add-In's and Express editions has not changed.
I am just about to get used with Visual Studio 2010 right now.
So could you mention visual studio add-in that is ready for Visual Studio 2010?
Take a look within Visual Studio itself: Tools -> Extension Manager.
This will show various tools and other extensions from http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/. I'm not sure if it's working very well right now, as I'm having connection issues within VS and the site seems a bit slow.
I know AnkhSVN exists on there and I'm sure others do as well.
Here's a blog post with some more information: Get VS2010 Extensions easily with built-in Extension Manager (and checking out a VS2010T4 editor)
JetBrains has preview builds of ReSharper available. It may not be completely stable yet, but some ReSharper is better than no ReSharper...
AnkhSVN - a subversion client is VS 2010 compatible.
Hope that helps,

Get ReSharper. It really helps you make fewer errors and code faster. http://twi.im/oW
My addin Atomineer Pro Documentation provides automatic DocXml/Doxygen comment generation tool for use in C/C++/C#/VB/Java. It supports XML Documentation, Doxygen, JavaDoc, and Qt format comments.
An alternative for documenting in XML format for C#/VB is GhostDoc - there is a feature comparison here to give an idea of how they measure up to each other.
