How to turn IntelliSense on in Visual Studio 2010?

Question

I am trying to enable the intellisense for aspx file types. I checked auto list members in the texteditor options. Either checking hide advanced members or not makes no diff

Answer 1

Couple of other things to note:

-- I've experienced this issue before because I loaded the settings files from an x64 machine to an x86 machine (full export). There are some paths in "Tools > Text Editor > Javascript > Intellisense > References" that simply don't exist on the x86 machine.

***Note: There is a "Reference Group" drop down in that settings editor that I have never actually succeeded in permanently setting. It reverts every time I go back to the settings (or open the environement?).

-- By default, the VS web app templates come with a ~/Scripts/_references.js file with these lines:

/// 
/// 
/// 
/// 
/// 
/// 

...adding that has helped me before and it has not helped.

-- If you do reset all your settings, choose Web Developer when you start-up for the first time (this may be my own paranoia as I did not re-test after getting jQuery intellisense to work ... however, I still didn't have jQuery intellisense after choosing Web Developer (Code Only))

-- Restart VS after making each change ;-)
