Recently my VAX settings are lost every time I close VS. Has anyone seen this before?
VS: 2.0.50727
VAX: 1438NP

have you tried rebooting? if there is some locked or running process involved then this might help.
are you running more than one instance of the IDE at the same time? if so then one instance may be over writing the settings from the other.
if neither helps, can you try manually editing a VA setting in the registry, e.g. the key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Whole Tomato\\Visual Assist X\\ShowTipOfTheDay = No
if all settings are being reset then this should be defaulting to Yes. if you can edit and change the keys yourself then this should rule out a permissions problem in the registry. so the next step is to download and run the program:
http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/Regmon.html
and set the filter to only show "Visual Assist X" registry keys. leave this running while you load the IDE, change some VA settings and then close the IDE. hopefully this will tell us what is going on and why. |

I forgot to mention that I tried uninstalling VAX, deleting VAX registry entries, and reinstalling. It might be my imagination but I think it worked for a short while after that. It is broken again now. |
