Visual Studio keyboard mappings lost.

After installing DirectX SDK (April 2007) I have lost my keyboard mappings in Visual Studio. Del and Delete, Arrows Enter all don’t work.

I have done a repair on Visual Studio (only took an hour) and that didn’t fix it.

So it now looks like I get uninstall the DirectX SDK (knew I should stick to OpenGL), and uninstall/install Visual Studio again.

Failing that it might be repave time. And here I was just wanting todo some work….

Update: ARRRRRGGGGGG, Uninstalled DirectX SDK (April 2007 and December 2005) didn’t work!

Uninstalled Visual Studio 2005, and reinstalled, still doesn’t work! In fact it’s like it didn’t actually uninstall.

I’m SOOO grumpy at this point.

Update 2: Nothing like, having nothing to lose to help solve the problem. I went and deleted the following directories

  • C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0
  • C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Microsoft\VisualStudio\recent
  • C:\Documents and Settings\Parents\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0

Plus the .suo and .ncb of my project and it now working correctly again.

THANK GOODNESS!
