Things you do after VS2005 fresh install
-
for me: 1.) Hide the default visible toolbars 2.) put 'save all', 'close all', 'build', 'start', 'start without debugging' to the menu bar. 3.) Remove the 'community' menu. 4.) Create project 'foo' and type around, setup my custom shortcut keys. 5.) Change the font settings. 6.) Restore my custom templates. :)
1. Tool -> Import Export Settings -> Reset All Settings to General Development Settings 2. Tool -> Import Export Settings -> Import Visual C++ Windows Layout (only the Windows Layout) Actually I have saved off my default settings so I don't repeat these steps anymore. I have a My Default Settings.settings file which I import every now and then.

Living on the edge is cool until you fall off it - then you are living in a deep gorge and your body is broken all over.

Remove all toolbars Remap certain keys to things that make sense to me Add the registry entry that gives me those tab lines in the editor Change the default editor for all .cs files to the C# editor (not the form designer) Change the font Move the solution explorer over to the left Get rid of the error/task thing Have it show the output window during a build Set the build message output to quiet Get rid of the margin and gutter thingies I think that's all.
