Cant Find Find
-
I did something to my VS2008 instalation so that Ctrl F or the associated menu path no longer invoke the "Find and Replace" dialog. How do I get it back?

Tools > Options > Environment > Keyboard. In the Show commands containing, type Edit.Find. From there, you can set the mapping to what you like.

Morning Pete, This ones different. Invoking Find using point/click through the menus does nothing either. I have found Edit.Find and it is assigned to Ctrl-F, I have also done a reset. Its more like the Find dll if there was such a thing is not responding. I have seen a single intance of a blacked out Find and Replace dialog with (not Responding) since this started. Ger

No, all Find or Find/Replace options are failing to respond.

You might have to reset Visual Studio then. To do this, from the command line, type in devenv /resetsettings. Unfortnately, this wipes any settings you have, but it should cure the problem.

Exiting VS2008 and restart - no use, nor was a full system reboot. However the magic wand that is Devenv/ResetSettings from the VS command prompt put everything back as it should be. I have still no idea where the Find/Replace feature went or what caused it to happen.

Internally, VS relies quite heavily on COM for its underpinnings. I suspect that one of the things that resetsettings does is to reregister the COM components it needs, restoring the interfaces in the registry.
