Yeah - closing open docs certainly speeds things up.

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.

"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

rebind the save to the enter key, might save you some work

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

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?

- Null ref at NuGet.SolutionRestoreManager
- System.ArgumentException: The collections refer to different snapshots.at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.NormalizedSnapshotSpanCollection.OverlapsWith (x 100)
I got bored after that.

Well first line gives away
Have you tried cleaning up your NuGet packages, and then check if all works?
If then, then try add one by one, while do the check, to see what's really causing it.

I have found no issues with the latest VS2019 update. It is very stable except for not always opening the last project worked on at startup.

I have coffee and chocolate covered espresso beans, but Glory is making me tired on the *inside* so the caffeine is not helping.
I implemented so many features in my last parser generator that it's a lot of work to add them again to this generator which works completely differently. I guess I did it to myself.
Oh well, at least it's working. I just have a lot of detail work to do - the tedious stuff.
I need a code monkey. If only i could train my cats to do this.

"I need a code monkey": I think now is the point where you become arrogant. Think about it

I was thinking an actual monkey. I wasn't using a dysphemism for human developers.

my fault in using "code monkey" that way.
i always picture an actual little monkey writing code when I hear it even though I know it's a pejorative.
OTOH, I use "script kiddie" pejoratively.

I used to call developers bunnies. There were lots of them, they were young, and they needed to be shielded from various forms of BS. Eventually someone found it offensive, so that was the end of that.

Maybe - if you say so.
I, for one, took it for a slur upon some (allegedly human) members of the coding community and took it as a well established and self evident "given".

It was in a line next to my cats, which apparently didn't give it enough context.
Now if you choose to continue with your original reading and be offended by it, don't let me stop you.

Going with my original reading I was NOT offended.
In fact, my followup text reinforced and heartily supported the reality of the interpretation that was referred to by (name withheld) as offensive. Someone finding something offensive neither adds nor diminishes from its voracity
