I believe that's what Microsoft wants you to do in such a situation

At least the sneaker-net of today is much better than just days past when files bigger than 1.4MB (or so since you could never really use all of it!) required special handling...remember filesplitter?  Good luck!

Too Blo*dy True! Did any have any success with file splitters?

Most curious, I upgraded VS 2015 with a variety of new tools; now it's slowed down to a crawl; that's not so unexpected. I'll remove the new tools one-by-one, and see if/when I get a speed-bump.
Meanwhile, back in VS 2013, a (WinForm) project (created in VS 2013) refuses to respond to keyboard input (when open for editing). Closing, re-opening, VS 2013; re-booting the computer : no change. Yep, other projects opened in 2013 show no problem getting keyboard input.
And, same project opens in VS 2015, and, no problem with editing.
But, in VS 2015, with all these incredible tools installed (including ReSharper), I add some entries to a big Dictionary of Type <Enum,Action> ... and I get a run-time error that I gotta duplicate key being added.
So, that's no real surprise, I was working fast, and copying existing key-value pairs with their Enum value keys and lambdas for the Action, and pasting them, and modifying them to add additional "features."
But, what is surprising ... disturbing even ... is that the the run-time error report doesn't tell me which key I am trying to enter twice. I keep thinking something is wrong, wrong, wrong with that.
time for a break: these horses are getting too sweaty ...
cheers, Bill

I recently installed the free Community Edition of VS2015. I like it, but it loads projects at about half the speed of VS2012 Pro. I had to buy the Pro edition in 2012 because, unlike the 2015 Community Edition, the free versions of 2012 did not accept any plug-ins (like Wix). I now have both versions running on my machine, but the NuGet tool does not work at all with the older 2012 version. I do not know what broke NuGet. Maybe it was the installation of the 2015 edition, or maybe 2012 has incompatibilities with Windows 10. I upgraded to 10 just before I installed VS2015, so now I don't know which of the two installs broke 2012.

Hi Cornelius,
Turns out the main component of the delay with VS 2015 was my having turned on all the static checking options with MS DataContracts. I'm still running Win 8.1, and have no intention to go to Win 10 until it has been de-wormed, and muzzled.
cheers, Bill

Thanks Bill,
Fortunately VS2012's NuGet not working is not a serious issue for me. I now do all my work on VS2015 and only use 2012 to open another project, if I want to copy and paste code from it. Yes, 2015 loads projects slightly slower, but not to the extent that it bothers me.
I have been working on Windows 10 for a while now, and have so far only noticed one very weird issue:
I have WinZip version 16 that I have bought years ago, to zip some backups from time to time. When I run that under 10, Windows resets some of my default programs to whatever it favors. Specifically, the default programs for PNG, JPG and HTM files are reset to Win 10's internal apps. WinZip works just fine, but I have to reset those defaults every time I used it. Curiouser and curiouser!

Been there, seen it. In my case it was the Resharper plugin blocking something. This[^] post on SO helped me out, might be a solution for you too.

Marco,
Thanks ! With fresher eyes this morning (GMT+7) I saw the little ReSharper "what's going on" wheel-icon was in an "always thinking" state; clearing the cache, as you suggested took care of that problem.
cheers, Bill

But - but - but half the fun of drinking good coffee is to taste it. It's not just about the caffeine!

Exactly! I guess that wrist band is for those who would also swap their coffee for an energy dring

Drinking decaf makes as much sense as wearing that stupid wrist band.

Hi All,
Wives and loved ones leaving seem to be theme for todays lounge. Let me lift the mood with a 90' turn. I have been working on a test rig for a company this week and have hadf some difficulty with the darn interface board, thanks to D@nish (![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif) ) for giving me a link to the updated docs and to Velleman support who answered a question on Friday night(!)
I now have a version working on Win 10.
So hats off to D@nish and Velleman for giving help at a time when most companys are closed.!

And she did it, before some years, because of a very heavy disability caused by a Virus infection
And I'm the same idiot like @Michael-Martin to try to solve that with beer
[Edit]
Sorry that I wrote this here, but it will soon be the anniversary. I will not do again.
[Edit1]
And yes in my absence I forgot to mention: beer does not help! Neither for you Mr.
@Michael-Martin not for me!
