cannot add new item

[Cecilia]

I'm having this really annoying problem. I can't add new items to a existing project anymore. I have been adding new items to this project all the time, suddenly it won't allow me to do that. I add a new windows form to this existing project, will load this new form from an existing form in this project. But when I tried to run it in VS->Debug->Start without Debugging, it asked me to report this problem to Microsoft. I don't know what problem this is. If I run it in VS->Debug->Start Debugging, it doesn't bother me.

Please help, thanks a lot!

What I would do is start a new project and add each existing file from the old project. The project can go strange sometimes. I have had similar problems before. Good luck.

hmm.....

in such situation, don't let yourself stuck in ur problem. just simply uninstall ur visual studio - restart ur computer - then install it again. if the same thing happens, then reinstall ur windows.

Hi Cecilia

Do you receive any error message other than the standard "Report this problem to Microsoft" dialog.

Also try using a different login.

This has happened to me before. I just restarted the computer and it worked again. Your Visual Studio projects seem to bug up because of explorer.exe sometimes; well, for me anyways.
