Visual Studio 2022: "Task List" window is empty when VS starts

Time:09-09

Found several similar questions for older VS versions, some especially mentioning C . I'm getting the effect with C# as well as VB.Net projects in Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2022 (64-bit) - Version 17.3.3

Steps to reproduce:

  • Open a new VS2022 IDE instance
  • "Create new Project", say type "ASP.Net Core Web App (C#)" or a "Console App (Visual Basic)"
  • Open the View -> "Task List" window
  • Open any code file, e.g. WebApplication1\Pages\Index.cshtml.cs
  • In C# add a line
    //TODO: find this in the IDE's "Task List" window // in the OnGet() event handler
    ' Or TODO: something ' in VB.Net code
  • Observed: the TODO line appears in the Task List window as expected //Okay
  • Save, and close the IDE instance
  • Open a the same newly created "WebApplication1" solution in a new VS IDE instance.
  • Observed: Task List window is empty although the TODO line still exists // not Okay
  • As soon as one edits any code file, e,g. WebApplication1\Pages\Error.cshtml.cs, even by just adding and removing a single space
  • Observed unexpectedly (all if there are more than just one) TODO lines magically reappear in the Task List

Actual question: Is that a reproducible VS Bug or is it just me / my PC/setup?

CodePudding user response:

Doing a "Visual Studio Installer" -> "Repair" seems to have cured the symptom so far fortunately. (That part took a while though and also demanded an O/S restart. Reinstalling one Extension and arranging desired IDE/Debug windows layout afterwards was easy.)
