Reset VS Windows to DefaultSelect the “Window” menu and choose “Reset Windows Layout“.
It's easy to set your default layout: Arrange your windows the way you like, go to the Window menu in Visual Studio and pick Apply Window Layout > My Default. If you want you can setup several window layouts by picking Window > Save Window Layout.
Just drag and drop onto the mechanic and dock the solution explorer window to the left side of the window. You must drop the panel onto the fastener, in the position you wish it to be docked (in the case, the rectangle on the left of the fastener, highlighted with a red circle).
I'm having a weird issue with Visual Studio 2008. Every time I fire it up, the solution explorer is about an inch wide. It's like it can't remember it's layout settings.
Every un-docked window is in the position I place it. But if I dock a window, it's position is saved, but it's size will be reset to very-narrow (around an inch) when I load.
I've never come across this before and it's pretty annoying. Any ideas?
The things I've tried:
none of which changed the behaviour of docked windows. (Also, definitely no other instances running..)
I do run two monitors, but I've had this setup on three different workstations and this is the first time I've come across it.
