I know this is probably a question for out of pod experience, but I know this is where all the developers hang out so I posted here. I'm in the middle of projects in finals week for school and my copy of Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition has a nasty bug that I'm trying desperately to fix. My copy is fully legal and registered.
Out of nowhere my toolbox and properties windows simply stopped populating their usual options. I was working in a code window and when I went back to the form the windows didn't populate any more. I have reset my import and export settings, deleted the localhost files, reset the settings to default via Visual Studio Command line, reinstalled VS 2008, rebooted my system, and posted help topics on multiple forums including the MSDN forums for Visual Studio. None of this has generated change.
Now I'm posting this here because I know the gaming community has a large number of experienced developers and I'm hoping your knowledge might be of some help. I've got less than a week left to finish these projects (which are almost done), but I can't do it without a working copy of VS 2008.
Does anyone know how to fix this bug?
Thanks

Sorry to hear you are having trouble with Visual Studio. I did a quick Google search on this topic and the only suggestion I found that fixed the problem was by deleting the tbd files in the user directory.
See this MSDN Forum Post.
I hope this solves your problem.

Unfortunately it didn't fix the problem. I've drawn blanks on absolutely everything. I'm probably going to try installing my copy of VS 2010 that I was saving until the winter break, but at this point I'm ready to wipe windows anyway because reinstalling Visual Studio didn't fix this issue. 
Thanks for trying. :)

Yeah that will probably be your best bet in the short term. besides you can still target .net 3.5 in vs2010.

Looks like VS 2010 works just fine. At least I won't have to spend 10-16 hours setting up Win7 and getting all my apps reinstalled. lol.
