I am using VS 2013 MVC 5 ASP.NET

I am brand new in MVC 5 ASP.Net. I wanted to code in my CSHTML files like

@using (Html.BeginForm()

But there is no Autocomplete, no IntelliSense for this function, no parameter and hint is shown. I have searched a lot but I am not getting a solution for this problem. I am just getting IntelliSense for HTML tags in my CSHTML file, but nothing for this C# codes. But in the videos about VS 2013 MVC I realized that there must exist IntelliSense, Autocomplete and parameter hints for this functions.

What I have done:

  1. I have deleted the .suo file and restarted VS Studio
  2. I have even repaired the whole VS 2013
  3. I uninstalled Xamarin Extension.
  4. I reseted all the options

  5. I have tried to use the solutions of the following threads:

But the problem still remains How can I enable that for my view files (CSHTML)?

  • Would you please include your Windows version, Visual Studio version, .NET being used and so on? Also where you got them? – Rowan Freeman Jul 22 '15 at 01:16
  • if possible try to install resharper it is a great tool for development – Light Jul 22 '15 at 06:30
  • I am using Windows 7, VS Studio 2013 Prof Version 12.0.31101.00 Update 4, .Net 4.5.50938 (German Version). I have bought the VS from Amazon and it is totally legal. – Code Pope Jul 22 '15 at 06:57
  • Does your c# code get highlighted with a colour scheme (i.e. the IDE is recognising it as c#) like this site has done for your snippet above? – scgough Jul 22 '15 at 09:47
  • @scgough In the cshtml files no. It doesn't get highlighted with a colour scheme – Code Pope Jul 22 '15 at 09:52
  • OK, I would confirm that MVC is actually correctly installed on the machine running VS and there are no issues with updates awaiting to be installed.Check 'Tools > Extensions & Updates...' in VS as well as 'Install Web Components'. I think you can install MVC 5 via Nuget: http://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc/5.2.3 – scgough Jul 22 '15 at 09:53
  • @scgough I have run this command and it shows that "Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc 5.2.3" is already installed – Code Pope Jul 22 '15 at 11:19
  • Very strange @MoProg ! I'm afraid I can't offer any more advice but will come back to the thread if anything springs to mind. Hope you get it sorted. – scgough Jul 22 '15 at 11:21

I copped with the same issue. I have fixed it by downloading the Microsoft Web Tools for VS 2013_1 from here! and run it. It should be fine

Well,it happens sometime.

Usually,If restarting the VS or restarting the computer could not solve this problem,I would chose to repair the VS.
