The Mobile Minute 105
Happy Happy Joy Joy – I had the distinct pleasure of having VS2005 go south on me yesterday. At one point, my laptop was being rather sluggish so I thought a reboot was in order (been doing the Standby and Hibernate thing all week). Silly me. When I ran VS2005 (beta 2) after I restarted, my smart device projects where all whacked. MSBuild was throwing errors, references couldn’t be found – it was a regular festivus. I checked the app log and see a *bunch* of stuff in there.. I try to run devenv /setup as it suggested to rebuild the templates. No joy. I tried a repair. No joy. I then uninstalled VS2005 (oh, wait, have to remove MSDN Library for VS2005, first!), restarted, re-installed VS2005 and MSDN Lib for VS2005. Several hours later – all was well. ah, the beta life.. now to catch up to where I should have been Thursday evening and get my deliverables knocked out.
