The output window that shows all the build messages in Visual studio is missing. I was not able to bring it back using the view menu. I tried safe mode and diagnostic mode, and restarted everything. How can I get the window back?

Launch the following: <pre class="prettyprint"><code>devenv.exe /ResetSettings </code></pre>

Visual Studio 2015 output window missing

To quote MSDN:

The Output window does not appear on the View menu in Visual Studio Express editions. To bring it up, use the hotkey CTRL + ALT + O.
