I reformatted my laptop and reinstalled vs2010, now every time I open a asp classic solution the following occurs:

  • solution explorer loads
  • tabs for the pages left open from last time appear
  • wheels spin for about 2-3 minutes before I can begin work

It was fast and responsive on Windows XP pro...

Laptop specs Intel i7 M620 2.67GHZ 4GB 32 Bit

  • I've already updated to SP1, no difference, as well as trying to disable hardware accelaration through Tools --> Options --> General – Doug Chamberlain May 11 '11 at 17:27
  • Do any messages appear in the VS statusbar during loading? – Jan-Peter Vos May 11 '11 at 17:31
  • There are a few suggestions here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2707977/visual-studio-2010-very-slow-web-applications-debugging Try the "Native Code" debugger one. – keyboardP May 11 '11 at 17:37
  • I'm not debugging anything, the issue is to load the ide. – Doug Chamberlain May 11 '11 at 17:39
  • @Jan-Peter Vos - Blank, it doesn't read anything on status bar. – Doug Chamberlain May 11 '11 at 17:40
  • You could try to delete the .suo file next to the solution file. (This should contain only user settings, but keep a copy somewhere to be safe). Also you could try to check if there are references to network locations/network services somewhere in the solution or Visual Studio configuration. Maybe something you unblocked in the firewall on your previous installation. – Jan-Peter Vos May 11 '11 at 18:38

Try disabling your virus scanner. I had a lot of trouble with vs2010 having VERY long load times until I added exceptions to my build paths in Microsoft Security Essentials.

  • First, it's the same virus scanner installed by the org as on my laptop before upgrading to Windows7, same EPO policy and everything. Second, HA!. I already and modified my registry to shut it off completely as I also thought it might be the cause. Third, who installs enterprise level virus scanning software but lets the user shut it off? Derp!!! – Doug Chamberlain May 11 '11 at 17:43

I had to run svn cleanup on the directory. Not sure how that was affecting VS2010, but it was. Now the app loads up in about 5 seconds.
