MVC 3 Razor Intellisense

Question

I have Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate installed with SP1 RTM and MVC 3 RTM installed as well. The problem I am having is that the Razor intellisense will not work. When I start a new MVC 3 project with the Razor engine and open a view, the Razor highlighting works but all of the key words are underlined with red squiggles and the intellisense doesn't work. I do not have ReSharper installed.

I have tried reinstalling MVC 2, MVC 3, and Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate but intellisense will still not work for Razor. Has anyone else had this issue, or know how to fix it?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

When uninstalling make sure to uninstall all of the below:

• Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 3
• Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 3 - Visual Studio 2010 Tools Update (you might not have this one installed)
• Microsoft ASP.NET Web Pages
• Microsoft ASP.NET Web Pages - Visual Studio 2010 Tools

Now install the following:

• ASP.NET MVC 3 Tools Update

Razor Intellisense should work.
