Helped work around the issue but actually fixing the issue was done by manually re-entering all the settings. &nbsp;This has seemed to work. &nbsp;I think there may have been some corruption or invalid meta data in the file. &nbsp;Thanks for the assistance.

Hi guys. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
We have a copy of VS2005 that we have made some changes to the VSSettings file, &nbsp;When you make these changes and close VS2005 they are all lost and the defaults are restored. &nbsp;Every time our developers wish to build on this system they have to import the settings file. &nbsp;This is rather annoying as we only have 1.<br />
<br />
Any one have any ideas? &nbsp;When you make the changes to these settings you can use the program fine, &nbsp;just when you close out of the IDE you lose any settings you create.<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Visual Studio 2005 overwrites the currentsettings.vssettings with defaults on close

Most development for the Microsoft platform is done utilizing the technologies supported by the.NET framework. Other development is done using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) for programs like Access, Excel, Word and Outlook, with PowerShell for scripting, or with SQL for large databases.
