Visual Studio ate my toolbar, I opened a solution for a project I’ve been working on for a few months, and the toolbar has 135 buttons on it, and while it was loading, the whole toolbar flickered like it was trying to give me a seizure or something, and then it dissappeared. Now when I click Debug, it won’t let me do it because all the resources are missing!?
I’m using:
Visual Studio 2010 C# Express
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
I have searched Google and found nothing related. I’m hoping that Visual Studio can also somehow make bowel movements so I can find those missing resources and put everything back together again, but I don’t think that’s a likely scenario…
Has anybody ever experienced this before, and if so, are there any updates/fixes for this?
First of all – shame on you for not having a backup or better using source control. Who basically cares whetehr you lost the current work, if your last working state is an “undo checkout” away.
Second, your toolbar is code. Look into the code behind file. Find out what is wrong there / missing there. Comment parts out until it works again, then slowly uncomment them until you find the wrong issue 😉
