Visual Studio 2008 SP1 Reverts To Default Settings

Installed VS 2008 SP1 last night, fired up Visual Studio this morning to find that all my carefully crafted settings had been reset to the default. Luckily for me, I read the entire Read Me before installing and thus, backed up my settings before hand. Wait, no I didn’t because A SERVICE PACK SHOULDN’T RESET MY F&CKING SETTINGS!

Thanks, Microsoft, I didn’t have anything better to do this morning than try to get my environment set back up again. Really, I didn’t.

  1. Sorry? What part of beta don’t you understand?

  3. The part where it doesn’t hose up my personal settings, apparently. Or maybe it’s the part where they claim their beta has “improved features for both client and Web development” or has “improved performance in the IDE and WPF designers, improved Web development and site deployment”.

    Microsoft likes to act like their betas are nothing but improvements and enhancements instead of treating them like true beta software.

  5. You should have waited…it was released not long after. SP1 is a beast of an update though. I am suprised it hit your settings though.
