Not entirely sure if this was caused by the VAX beta, but VS2010 was working correctly prior to activating VAX in it.

Once VAX was activated I had a problem where I could not open some files from within the IDE, wasn't all files though, I'd say around 30%-40% of the .h/cpp files could not be opened. The compiler was still able to compile them but I had no way to navigate to these files..

2nd issue, ran the devenv reset functionality that I hoped might fix some of the problems and also turned off the UAC in vista since it was preventing me from running the devenv commands. Now VS2010 works correctly-- but VAX is gone and I cannot seem to get it to reinstall, when I try and launch the install it tells me it is already installed...

How do I reinstall VAX for vs2010?

Thanks

Does VA show up in the Extension Manager (Tools menu)?
If so, is it enabled?

I think the question is better read as how do you uninstall/reinstall it completely.

Uninstall is done via the Uninstall button in the Extension Manager dialog.

Reinstall via double-click of the downloaded vsix file (after having restarted if you did the uninstall).

The 1806 build works for me thanks Sean.

Some bugs:

When scoping in namespaces sometimes it drops cursor back to the begging of the line.

so I type device11:: and right when I hit the second ":" it converts the whole thing to this...

: device1:

also have seen it do this instead...

type device1, then hit the 1nd ":" and it tabs the entire thing over and deletes the "d" leaving
evice11:

Does typing speed seem to be a factor here? Does the problem go away if you type more slowly?

How easily can you reproduce this problem? I have just tried this a few times here in VS2010 Beta 2 in C++, and so far I cannot reproduce the problem. So I wonder if I have not tried enough times, or if perhaps I am typing to slowly.

I've experienced a similiar issue with vanilla Beta2, where occasionally the cursor would jump to the beginning of the line when typing the opening curly brace for a function definition, or the closing angle bracket for an include directive. It may be the same editor bug.

Interesting, thank you for the update zao.

FitzyDog does disabling VA make any difference to this effect on your system?
