Answer 3

There is a comment about this under this answer, but I think it's important to list it here. If you want to preserve your settings, export them first because they will be lost.

From MSDN forums - since I had to hunt around far too much to find the solution to this:

1. Close Visual Studio
2. Start the Developer Command prompt installed with Visual Studio as an administrator.
3. type 'devenv /resetuserdata' ('wdexpress /resetuserdata' for Express SKUs)
4. Start Visual Studio Normally.

Worked for me.

so the solution is easy Just Click Switch User

hope this help you
