This happened to me in Visual Studio 2008 pre and post 2008 sp1 on more than one computer and to someone else I know, so it can’t be an isolated incident.

Seemingly random, every so often I lose all syntax highlighting in my aspx page (the html) so that Visual Studio now looks like a really expensive version of notepad.

Does anyone know why does happens? Better yet, anyone know how to fix it?

    syntax highlighting has disappeared since because of package loading failures. I didn’t find the fix yet so if anybody has an idea…
