Latest update to Visual Studio 2019 crashing a lot

No, no - first comes the Business Risk Assessment.

For that you need to hire a consultant. Incidentally, does anyone know of a message board that specialises in giving advice on repairing water buckets?

Is it just me or has the latest update to VS2019 made it a bit of an unstable mess? At least once a day it locks up and rolls over with all 4 paws in the air and restarts, losing whatever I had unsaved. I feel like I'm back in 1996, hitting Ctrl+S every 3 carriage returns

I apply all updates. I keep an eye on memory. Mine runs comfy with at least 1.2 GB for one session. Unload / reload a "sticky" project.

Depends what you're working on. For me, developing a UWP app, it's crashing every 1.5-2 hours at least (but it's not something new :D). One trick I use - every once in a while, when I end up with more than 30 open files, I close them all.

What is "latest"? Exact version number. Mine is 16.4.5 and in very rare cases WPF designer crashes, taking VS to the hell. I wouldn't expect too much from VS team - they are mediocres hired for food. Developers at MS degraded for years, so be careful with every update. :)

Do you have older versions of VS installed in parallel? I sometimes had problems when I just updated VS 2019 and not VS2017 or VS2015 on dev. machines, mostly not with VS itself, but with installed extensions/plugins.

You mean you stopped doing it? I never took you for a silly man, Chris.

Not only that: I ensured my machine was plugged in, I checked my internet connection, and I also turned off the machine, waited 30 seconds, and turned it back on. I've essentially run the full suite of advanced help desk techniques. And still it crashes once a day! Doomed, I am.

Hehehehehe.....advanced help desk techniques. ;)

No - clean install. I'm blaming my DELL.

Hmm. It looks like you forgot to implement the "shake your mouse about" method.

"Latest" meaning "The version that isn't nagging me to upgrade". In this case 16.4.5. We're all production line monkeys at some point or another. Thinking we're artists is not something a typical employer wants to hear ;)

Yeah - closing open docs certainly speeds things up.

I am required to keep patches up-to-date on all of my tools, so I update within a few days of a new update becoming available. I've had no problems with VS2019 being unstable. Maybe it's an extension that you use that combines with the update to cause problems?

That's what I'm thinking. I used to use GhostDoc religiously but it progressively became more bloated, unstable and froze up VS, so that's gone. I'm suspecting one of the other (very few) add ins I use are the issue. It's a real shame that software, like cars, always seems to get bigger and bulkier, and rarely smaller, faster and more efficient.

I know this is controversial.. But what does eventlog say? Or, what about any related log files created inside your vs directory?
