VS2005, C++, VA10.6.1850.0, Win 7 x64
After starting visual studio lately I've noticed that some visual assist features don't seem to take effect until I've entered and "OK"ed the Visual Assist X Options dialog. The things I've noticed this with are:
Highlight matching {} and () using [color]
Display indicator after column [space] using [color]
Highlight find results |

Are you using any other Visual Studio addins or extensions?
As a wild guess, this might help: Please close all instances of the IDE, then run regedit and delete the following key, and all of its content:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\8.0\\FontAndColors\\Cache\
The IDE will re-create this key next time it loads. It helps with some coloring problems, but might not in your case. |

No such luck, unfortunately. I'm not (by default) running the IDE as an administrator, let me try that...
...nope, same problem.
edit:
May actually only be a problem when the file was opened automatically because it was open the last time the solution was loaded. Still, that's quite often for me. |

| Sorry, the only other extension is an intel fortran compiler integration. |

Can you please export your Visual Studio and Visual Assist settings and send them in?
VA Options -> Performance -> Export Settings
IDE tools menu -> Import and Export Settings -> Export selected environment settings
So I can import them here to see if I can reproduce the problem.
Just use this form to send the files:

Please include the URL of this topic in the description field so we can match it up. |

Unfortunately I wasn't able to reproduce the problem.
Can you please turn on logging and reproduce the problem?

This might give us a clue about what is happening... |

| I've uploaded the logs. There are two sets: One, where I entered the VA options dialog to work around the problem, and another where I simply experienced the problem and then exited the IDE. |

Visual Assist "inactive" until I go into settings
