visual studio 2008 - WTF happened to my toolbox? Mobile controls vanished :( -
man being developer great days make want become plumber :(
for reason when opened "smart device" solution today , tried use forms designer mobile controls had vanished toolbox. in place normal winforms controls. i'm using visual studio 2008.
i've tried starting new smart device project comes desktop controls. works fine if start new project targeting .net 2.0 if target 3.5 problem appears. doesn't make difference version of windows mobile choose. i've tried 5.0 , 6.0.
after 7 hours of struggling i'm getting desperate (i'm on phone microsoft) appreciated.
i've tried:
- resetting toolbox
- deleting hidden toolbox files (http://weimenglee.blogspot.com/2007/12/tip-missing-controls-in-toolbox-visual.html)
- resetting vs using following command: "devenv.exe /setup /resetuserdata"
- resetting using "cmd /c start /wait devenv /setup /resetuserdata /selfreg /resetskippkgs"
- punching monitor
thanks lot
cheers

update: tried going earlier system restore point. didn't :(
try forcing studio rebuild it's resource metadata following command:
devenv /setup
you might try resetting skip packages (in case reason it's been set skip cf toolbox stuff):
devenv /resetskippkgs
run these when studio not running
