Question

I installed Visual Studio 8 on Windows 8 with Resharper 7.0.1, and I have some problems getting Resharper to function properly. It seems most of ReSharper does not work, but here is some of the strange behaviour I have noticed:

• Clicking Ctrl-Shift+T opens up the select file or folder dialog, but when I select a file from here and click enter the dialog closes, but the file is not opened up
• Ctrl+R+R (rename) gives the message that the key is bound to Resharper Rename, but that it is not currently available, even when the cursor is inside a variable in a standard .cs file, and the program is not debugging.
• Alt+Enter does nothing, so the context menu does not pop up at all anywhere.

Does anyone know if ReSharper is not supposed to work under Win 8, or is it something that is messed up on my machine? In that case what?

EDIT

Notices that code analysis isn’t working either. So that “bar” on the right hand side of the code windows that displays the green. yellow and red lines to indicate problems is not there.

Answer 1

Seems like a reinstall of Resharper did the trick. I removed Reshaper now, and reinstalled it and now it seems like everything is working fine.

Don’t know what went wrong the first time, but now it’s back to normal.
