    The IDE crashes almost every time I right click on the "Properties" tree item in my WPF project. By "Crashes", I mean, the program just shuts down without so much as a whimper.

      Well, no, only the WPF designer. The whole thing is very stable in my experience. Maybe I'm just lucky.

            I bet that is a stack overflow. Anyway, good luck! Don't you have a copy of Expression Blend? I hear that it's much more stable (never tried it though).

                I don't know if there's a fix in here somewhere, but I remember that back in the good old days of VC++ 6, it would occasionally get squirrely, and the fix was to delete the .ncb file and restart. The ncb would get regenerated, and then life was good again. Apparently there was a periodic corruption in the file which the IDE didn't take kindly to. Given that Visual Studio is actually Visual Basic with some extras shoved in, I don't know if there's a parallel here, but it might be worth looking into.

                        I never had a problem with it when working in something other than a WPF project, but in this case, I agree.

                          I think the modern-day equivalent is to delete the SUO file. I'm gonna try it when I get to work today...

                                      That worked for now, but I'm sure I'll have to do it again in an hour or so. BTW, I've only seen reports of this problem on Vista64 machines (coincidentally, that's what I have on this box).

                                        The IDE crashes almost every time I right click on the "Properties" tree item in my WPF project. By "Crashes", I mean, the program just shuts down without so much as a whimper.

                                        I think 'crashes' is the wrong term here. 'Runs and Hides' is probably better.
