Yesterday I downloaded Visual Assist X 10.4.1640.0 Trial.
I installed Visual Assist X on my computer.
I use Windows XP SP3 & Visual Studio 2005.
I got two problems using Visual Assist X.
Here is the reproduction step for these problems

First problem's reproducing step
1 Start Visual Studio
2 Open Visual C++ Project
3 Tools > Add-in Manager > Uncheck "Available Add-ins" checkbox for Visual Assist X
4 Click "OK" button. Now, Visual Assist X is unloaded from VS2005
5 Tools > Add-in Manager > Check "Available Add-ins" checkbox for Visual Assist X
6 Click "OK" button
At this point, Visual Assist X should be loaded again, but it is not!

Second problem's reproducing step
1 Start Visual Studio
2 Tools > Add-in Manager > Uncheck "Startup" checkbox for Visual Assist X
3 Click "OK" button
4 Close Visual Studio
5 Start Visual Studio again.
At this point, Visual Assist X should not be loaded, but it is loaded again.
Unchecking "Startup" checkbox for Visual Assist X is useless.

The Add-in manager dialog does not do what you might expect in VS2005. See this FAQ entry if you want to stop VA loading when you start the IDE:

http://docs.wholetomato.com?W306

If you want to temporarily disable VA then use the menu item:

VAssistX -> Enable/Disable Visual Assist X

Is there a reason why you want to keep enabling and disabling VA? We do not recommend enabling and disabling VA to often while the IDE is running. Due to the way VA hooks into the IDE this can sometimes cause problems.
