I'm experimenting with VSCode(specifically version 1.17.1),
and I noticed if I change the content of some files programatically, the updated content doesn't appear immediately and I need to close and reopen the file!
Is this a common issue with VSCode, and how to solve it if there is any solution that doesn't involve a refresh command or a key binding like alt+f5.
Thank you in advance.

This is a follow-up on the problem reported in this question with this same name.
I am having the same issue in Visual Studio 2022 of objects collapsing after a few seconds or when clicking on another object. The answer provided was changing a setting in CodeMaid, but I have not loaded CodeMaid and am having the same issue.
I have tried multiple variations of checking and unchecking Tools/Options/Projects and Solutions/General options "Track Active Item in Solution Explorer" and "Restore Solution Explorer project hierarchy state on solution load" and nothing works. As I code, I will open Controllers to see the list of methods inside or a data model to view the variables for reference while I am working on other aspects of the code. It is very frustrating to have them close after a few seconds, forcing me to reopen them again, over and over, throughout the day. Any help would be appreciated on this matter.
Update: A Microsoft Solution was posted here. They included a fix in Visual Studio version 17.3.5 supposedly. Update your IDE and the issue should hopefully be resolved.
This seems to be a known issue under investigation as reported in the bug tracker for Visual Studio. Using version 17.3.0 Preview 2.0 I too have observed this buggy behavior.
A few other users have mentioned on the same thread they are having the same problem. One user posted steps to reproduce which is similar to what I have tried to reproduce the issue myself:
I expand Blazor project, I expand Pages folder, I lookup and expand a particular .razor file which has a nested .razor.cs file with code, I expand it, see the class node, expand class node, click on a property and usually in this moment, after less than a second or so the branch collapses and the focus in on the razor.cs node.
The ticket says that it "worked-in:Visual Studio 2022 17.0" - perhaps try rolling back to this version if you can. Otherwise, you may have to wait for a fix.
I had the same problem and I think I found the cause and a solution. The problem is the preview tab, which opens automatically on the right side of the tab area when an element is selected in the solution explorer. I unchecked the Preview Tab option under Options->Environment->Tabs and Windows and haven't had any problems since.
greets...
I'm trying to access the project properties but the window appears blank. I've tried web solutions View>Properties Window, f4, right click on project folder>properties, Also tried resetting import/export settings, searching for specific tab
everything results in a blank window.. Any help is appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
I ran into this same problem with VS 2022 v17.4.0 Preview 1.0 in a C# Windows forms app. Closing and opening the solution/VS didn't have any effect.
After I closed all the open tabs and reopened a file, the Properties pane was populating correctly.
Does your toolbox items also appear 'greyed out'?
Try Going to your Build Menu and select
Clean Solution
(and perhaps Rebuild afterward - or not)
This happens constantly on my install. I simply minimize the entire VS window, then restore it. Poof! My properties appear. Trivial, but painful.
1 Make sure that your build program is not running (use task manager to end that process if needed) and make sure that you can rebuild your project without errors.
2 Restart Visual Studio as an Administrator.
Good Luck For You All ^_^
I have just encountered this error and it was simply solved by closing the visual studio and reopening it again. it is just gone.
I am having a very strange situation over here.
I refered to the UWP samples and tried Custom Media transport controls sample. I ran it and it was working just fine, like its supposed to work. But then I tried and made my own project and I copied exactly everything which was in sample project not even name of file or folder was different. And then when I ran that project it gave me debugger unhandled exception and open App.ig.cs some file like this and when i continue it stop debugging. Below is the attached snapshot of that error. Any help is appreciated this is a really strange error for me as it makes no sense at all.
Note: I have tried to run it in both blend and visual studio
I solved it by simply ignoring the style of transport controls provided in the sample, for some reason that style was not able to verify some properties so I deleted that file and made my own style file, I copied the style of default media controls and edited them, it worked for me :)
I have no idea what changed, but either using Ctrl+. or right clicking to bring up the quick actions in VS2015 RC (14.0.22823.1) on a token that I haven't added the right using statement used to give me an option to automatically add it for me, along with options to create a new class and a few other things.
The last couple days it's no longer giving me the option to add the using statement for me (I use this shortcut all the time). It still has all the other options.
Anyone else run into this? I recently installed Web Essentials 2015.0 RC and Code Maid (code maid was causing problems so I removed it). Could one of those affect it?
I just had the same problem and solved it by renaming the .suo file in ProjectName\.vs\ProjectName\v14 to something VS will not find, like .suo.bak.
This will reset your project specific preferences, like open files, solution explorer state etc. Make a backup of the file or rename it so you can go back if you are missing something important.
If everything works afterwards you can simply delete the renamed file, VS will create a new one.
I am trying to debug my VB.net app in Visual Studio Express 2010, when I realized my changes will not update on my form-on the designer or in the code. After looking online, I found that you should clear out the "Debug" folder under the bin. That worked-for only one time. Now it went back to the older version and when I delete it again, it doesn't change. When I build the project and run it from the "Release" folder, it works perfectly, but when a error occurs at runtime, it won't show where the error is because it is running independently.
Thanks in advance.
(I have Windows XP SP3)
I had the same problem. Frustrating problem....? Close the project, go to debug bin/folder, delete these files, reopen project and rebuild it (F5).
- .exe
- .pdb
- .vshost.exe
- .vshost.exe.manifest
- .xml
it works 99.99%.......thanks
Before I'd create a new project, I'd copy all of the code-behind (including the code that creates the controls that you're not supposed to touch) into another form. That may be all you need to do. Try compiling that form and running it and see if it's good. If so, you won't have to create a whole new project and can just delete the old form.
I would think there's something causing this that would be much easier to to fix. Are there any config files or anything like that? Are you building to the right location?
It's been a while since I've done winforms, but I remember this happening in VS 2005 and I just created a new form and copied the code-behind into another winform and compiled.
Hope this helps.
mmm... if it was for me, with such a weird bug, i would create a new project then insert the files (not as a link, but a copy) in the project, and i most likely all will work fine after... Faster than finding where-the-hell is that wrong parameter...
So how do you do that ? Well create a new project, choose the folder and name, change namespace in settings if needed, then in project explorer Add existing item, then Browse and select your code and xaml (and other maybe) files. Let us know.
This happened to me as well. I believe the /bin and /obj folders of my application must've been locked for by some other application. Before manually deleting them I tried running Visual Studio as an administrator and did a Clean and a Rebuild which worked. If it doesn't work for you, try deleting the folders manually.
Close VS
Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete
Choose "Task Manager"
In the "Process" tab in "Task Manager" find your "ProjectName.EXE" and click "End Task"
Restart VS
I have the same problem, but i changed the solution config next to the start button from debug to release and that fixed my problem, try it :)
"Save all" works for me in VS 2010 VB, in Debug and Release mode.
I put the "Save all" icon next to the Run and Build icons.
First make sure your Localizable Property of you form is set to FALSE
