visual-studio-2010-sp1

I'm using Windows XP Professional SP3 and recently switched to Visual Studio 2010 Professional SP1 to work on a C++ project. If I try to right-click on a project inside Solution Explorer and select "Add" >> "Resource...", I get this error popup window: "The operation could not be completed. Unspecified error" And then the only option is to click "OK". Anyone else encountered this? I had this same problem. Right clicking on the project, selecting Unload Project , then right clicking again and clicking Reload Project fixed it. So I'm not 100% sure of the exact reason for this, but it had

I converted a solution from VS2008 to VS2010 SP1, and changed the unit test project to target the 3.5 framework. Other than having to fix a few references in the unit test project, everything worked ok and the solution built successfully. Most of the tests run successfully, but there were a handful that failed. The ones that failed are using a private accessor. Personally, I'd rather just remove these tests since I don't think they're necessary, but as long as it reveals a potential bug in SP1, I thought I'd see if anyone could figure out a work-around. The error message that I receive when

I'm trying to create a custom tool for code generation in Visual Studio 2010. First I register it: "$(FrameworkSDKDir)Bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools\gacutil.exe" /if "$(TargetPath)" Then I add it via a reg key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\CLSID\{6A96476E-74F3-4AB3-9CCA-F15EC6104D84}] "RuntimeVersion"="v4.0.30319" "Class"="MapBuildTool.MapFileGenerator" "Assembly"="MapBuildTool, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=en-US, PublicKeyToken=7d8abca94a1e38ae" "ThreadingModel"="Both" "InprocServer32"="C:\\Windows\\SysWOW64\\mscoree.dll" @="MapBuildTool" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE

For Visual Studio 2013, CodedUI is only available in the premium and ultimate editions. For Visual Studio 2015, it's only available

I ran Windows 8 Upgrade Assistant on my laptop today, and I saw something very interesting. Visual Studio 2010 SP1 is not compatible with Windows 8, but Visual Studio 2010 (no service pack) is compatible. Does Visual Studio 2010 SP1 work on Windows 8? If not, are there just a few specific functions that do not work correctly, or does it just crash and burn and become unusable? Compatibilty Center listed out that Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 SP1 is not compatible with Windows 8. But Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate SP1, Visual Studio 2010 Professional SP1, Visual Studio 2010 Premium SP1 are

I've noticed since installing Visual Studio 2010 SP1 that I'm having huge performance issues. It will randomly freeze up on me quite a bit. I had no performance issues with Visual Studio 2010 before the upgrade. The only add-on I have running is ReSharper. I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing performance issues? If so have you found a way to fix them? I emailed ReSharper support and they were helpful enough to point out that there is a known issue with the Productivity Power tools add-on not playing nice with ReSharper. They asked me to disable the Productivity Power Tools and see if

I'm actually trying to fix this issue where my projects are always out of date by using the steps outlined in this answer to enable system logging. However I can't find devenv.exe.config or the matching .exe file anywhere on my machine let alone in either C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86) . I'm running Windows 7 SP1 (which I presume isn't particularly relevant) and VS2010 Express SP1. I was thinking that maybe devenv isn't available in the Express version but I can't find any info to either confirm or deny my theory. Can anyone suggest why I don't have devenv.exe and whether I should
