• On the Debug menu, choose Windows, and then click Modules.

Except i have no Modules menu option:

Answer 1

Possible solutions :

• Try the shortcut Ctrl + D, M (Note that I configured my VS2010 for C# development the first time I started it so the shortcut may not be the same).

• Also, try repairing the install of VS2010 (This has helped me in the past).

• You can also reset VS settings from Tools -> Import and Export settings -> Reset all settings

Note that I also have VS2010 Professional edition and it's visible for me under Debug -> Windows -> Modules (I'm stopped at a break point here) :

Edit :

The option is also available in the Customize window

P.S: This option is only available when in debug mode
