Once I ran VS with this switch, all my Intellisense came back.

Fixed: Project Properties not Displaying

Added by:Thomas Lee

I had a problem where clicking on Project --> Properties would not bring up the properties for the project. No error message or anything...it just wouldn't display. I tried repairing VS, uninstalling/reinstalling VS, and reparing .Net 3.5 to no avail.

Running VS with this switch fixed the problem. Afterwards I was able to run VS normally and bring up Project Properties again.

Project properties still not displaying

Added by:justtesting

I have a similar problem. The project properties are not displayed for projects of type class libraries. For websites, the properties are displayed. I had a few addins like Dpack & slickedit installed. I uninstalled them & tried the command line switch, but that did not fix the problem.

Can anyone suggest what should i do?
