Please be forgiving, I'm new to programing. Recently Visual Studio stopped working properly. I tried my classic way of fixing things, which is reinstalling, but apparently VS remembers all settings. Trying to run any program results in something like this, an empty command prompt. Has anyone encountered a similar problem, or knows how to completely remove all VS settings? I believe the problem is with my PC because when I work from e.g. school library everything is working fine.

Are you running avast? If so disable it and try again. – drescherjm Jan 02 '16 at 19:22

Does this happen with x64 Debug mode too? – AStopher Jan 02 '16 at 20:13

You may easily reset all Visual Studio settings in Tools -> Import and Export settings
.
Another option is to create an experimental instance (new "profile") of Visual Studio with CreateExpInstance utility.

I already have, but the problem remains. Thanks for the help though – Robert Ostrowski Jan 02 '16 at 17:45

@RobertOstrowski, another option is to create experimental instance of Visual Studio with [CreateExpInstance utility](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd875761.aspx). Such instance is a completely independent set of VS settings. If it will not help, then the problem probably is not in settings. – Ilya Chumakov Jan 02 '16 at 20:05
