So far I was using VWD 2010 express quite smoothly on Windows XP. Now I have got a new laptop - with Windows 7 64 bit. Yesterday I installed VWD 2010 express. I transfered all my data to the new laptop. When I open an existing project, it opened well and even runs very well. But when I am design mode I have lots of problems like
Cursor is not seen in the .aspx page and scrolling does not work. Cant edit anything. However .aspx.cs works normally
when I press Ctrl + F, Find window opens up but when I give find next, the instance is not seen and the page does not navigate to the instance
When I double click on a file in the solution explorer, i dont see it open. But when I minimise the entire VWD and maximise it, I see that the clicked page is open.
sometimes (mostly just after the project is loaded) part of the screen is black and when i minimise VWD and maximise, the page is properly shown.
I tried Repair and also uninstalled and reinstalled the entire VWD 2010 express - the problem still exists. I dont know what problem it could be. I did not encounter any problem while installing VWD. Could this be a VWD problem or memory problem (8GB RAM) or graphic card(dedicated) problem? Any help is highly appreciated.
I solved the issue yesterday, I logged in to the forum today to post my solution so that it helps someone later. Here is what I did:
I opened the "Compatibility Troubleshooter" in the control panel and identitified that there is a compatibility issue. So I made changes to open VWDexpress in the compatible mode (In my case it was Windows XP service pack2) and saved the settings. Now it works very well.

This is mainly a Lazarus issue but it also applies to Remote Desktop on a Windows server.
We have a app called "Menu", it has buttons that launch other applications, some of them being written in Lazarus, and others in WinDev.
Everything is working very well when used on a local computer or in a remote desktop environment.
Our IT department made a ".rdp" file which starts our "Menu" application stored in the remote desktop, and the application appears in a local window, instead of being on the full remote desktop.
The problem is the following: the "Menu" application's taskbar icon is visible, but the applications that are started from the Menu are not visible : the ones that are written in WinDev show their taskbar icon, and the ones that are written in Lazarus do not show their taskbar icon.
Also, using Alt+Tab on the keyboard, we do not see them in the miniatures.
But when I minimize an application, then its icon suddenly appears on the TaskBar !
In the Lazarus applications, the default icons are setup in the project as usual.
The projects are compiled with Lazarus 2.0.12.
Hopefully someone here has already encountered this problem before ?
If so, would you be so kind to guide me in the correct way to solve this ?
Thanks.
On Visual Studio 2022, Windows 11.
Linq to SQL tools is installed from installer (Individual Components).
When right clicking a dbml file and View Designer, it just sticks on this and eventually needs an end task:
Tried (to no avail):
Clearing all app.config connection strings in the same project (in case it was silently barfing on one of those)
Installing older .NET frameworks, ticking on Data Storage and Processing and Data sources and service references
Any ideas what might be causing this? (Ran OK under Win 10 / VS 2022).
Edit: I've had this after every new PC install with Win 11, VS 2022 (3 work PCs), but it seems to resolve itself after a few days. I now know why, see marked answer re toolbox.
I experienced the same problem on Win8 with VS 2015 and 2017 and 2019, Win10 with VS 2015 and 2017. I did not solve the problem. Do not know what causes this problem. But now on Win11 with 2022 I opened my problematic DBML file, it took really long time to open (during opening it showed Not responding etc.) but finally VS opened DBML file. Then I made a change in the designer (just moved class a little bit = change = auto-generated file will be re-generated after save) and saved. Now this particular DBML file is opened within a second. Try it.
Viewing the Toolbox and (optionally) resetting it (right click > Reset) seems to solve this. It seems the designer can't open when the toolbox is not initialised (or fails to initialise). It is often a while before I open the toolbox on a new install so I kept on encountering this problem.
I am playing with a Blazor Wasm app on VS Community 2019 v16.6.2 using AspNetCore v3.2.0 and Chrome v83.0.4103. When I set a break point in some native javascript in VS, Chrome breaks on that statement instead of VS as shown in the screenshot below (look for the small light yellow "Paused in debugger" popup). This has happened before, but then I discovered I had '"nativeDebugging": true,' in the IIS Express profile in launchSettings.json. I got rid of it, and the problem went away. Now it is back, without nativeDebugging set. This is a giant pain. Any idea what I am missing this time?
Thanks. Steve
I'm not sure this is a real answer. As I said above, the problem went away when I merely opened the .map file for the TypeScript file. I assume that triggered some rebuild-like process, but that's purely conjecture.
I'm having periodic issues with changes I make to a website I'm building with VS not showing up when I run the VS debugger. For example, sometimes if I delete a section of code it still appears when I run the code using the VS debugger. This issue doesn't happen that often, and seems to appear and disappear randomly. If I go into the project's folder and manually open (double-click) the .html page I'm working on I can see my changes, so I know it's an issue with VS.
Is there something obvious I'm missing? I've just started using VS for web development, and as far as I know I'm using all the default settings.
Thanks!
Clean and built your project and try again dude.
I've tried this on two different machines now on Windows 7 and it appears that the Window > New Window menu command is not available in Visual Studio 2010. It doesn't work for HTML, .aspx, and .js files, but does work for .css, .cs, and .xaml files. Has anyone else noticed this or knows why this is?
(I have the productivity power tools extension installed)
I found a registry entry at
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\Languages\Language Services\HTML]
or
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\Languages\Language Services\HTML]
for 64 bit machines
called "Single Code Window Only"
I deleted it and the menu command showed up!
Then I made a new window, and it was completely blank.
I checked with Visual Studio 8 and found the same thing. Apparently they have not implemented "new window" for some file types.
Apparently they had started to implement it for Visual Basic Files, but had it disabled because it hadn't been thoroughly tested yet ( http://msmvps.com/blogs/deborahk/archive/2010/05/17/visual-studio-window-new-window.aspx ).
