hi all!
I have this problem: with the latest build, when I inserted the license happens this:
in vs2008 everything is ok, but in vs2010, the first time that I use vs2010 is fine, but after a reboot or simply after a suspension, when I start vs2010 all the VAX menus are disabled, only tools->VA view and tools->Find reference results..
what can I do? I need to reinstall all the times?
thanks

This is odd and should not happen. It is possible that Visual Assist cannot save the registry entries due to a permission problem.

If you are running Visual Studio 2010 with administrative privileges, you must explicitly allow extensions to run:
Tools | Options | Environment | Extension Manager | "Load per user extensions when running as administrator"

I'm having this exact issue. I upgraded to build 10.7.1903.0, maybe a week or so ago, and a few days ago noticed that all the items in the VAssistX menu, and all the buttons on the toolbar, are disabled. VA doesn't give me any warning or dialog when I launch it. Works fine in 2008, however.

I quit and relaunch VS, no effect. Restart my machine, no effect. Finally uninstalled and reinstalled VAX (10.7.1903.0), no effect.

I have the option set you mentioned above. Also, I can see in Tools->Extension Manager that VAX is installed and enabled. If I look at HKCU/Software/Whole Tomato/Visual Assist X, I can see UserName is filled in, but UserKey is not. Quitting VS, nuking those keys, and relaunching VS had no effect (in 2010, that is; 2008 prompted me for my key when I launched it).

I'm running Windows 7, 64-bit, if that helps. Prior to this I had been using an older build of VAX (don't know exactly what version), with no issues.

Well I just installed 10.7.1906.0, and the issue seems to have gone away. Odd.

It is odd indeed. I hope it was a one-off problem for you
