Interesting you'd mention that. I installed the latest update last week, and on Thursday/Friday, on multiple occasions, single-stepping (F10) seemed to continue execution or couldn't recover or something like that. I attributed it to me fat-fingering it, but happened enough times that now I see your post, I'm wondering if there's something to it.

In my case that would be C#.

One has to remember that multi-project solutions don't (always) compile if you haven't checked the proper project(s) in the "Build | Configuration Manager" unless you specifically ask to "Build / Rebuild" that project. (Been there)

On the other hand, when VS is "sleeping", it "seems" to release (more) excess memory. I think they're doing a lot of tinkering.

I have a very precise dependency tree, so compiling the main project will compile everything that is outdated - I also mostly do build-solution...
But the main issue is that, there is no error behind the fail and re-opening VS solves the problem - which indicates that VS does no know how to reload a unloaded project correctly... anymore... (which is fixed by re-opening VS and the solution)...

Versus which IDE that uses very little?

To me that would be an organization problem. I would break it into different solutions and if that was not possible then it would suggest different sort of problem.

Bluetooth Woes

I recently bought a new bluetooth device and it only uses Bluetooth LE. The Bluetooth adapter on my desktop is too old to connect.

So $16 later, I have an upgraded adapter that supports BT 5.0. My new device connects and works!

But now my older bluetooth devices don't connect... Confused | :confused:

clarification: They won't pair with the new adapter.

The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

So, all of your devices happen to connect to either BT, or BT LE exclusively...?

Can they not co-exist? Maybe installing the LT adapter disabled the older one...check Device Manager and such.

Beyond that, I'm just guessing. I've never purchased a BT device, and those that came with one, have had it disabled.

This morning I tried to print from my Windows desktop and Windows listed the printers I can target. Included in the list was an unknown HP printer! Checking the Control Panel and sure enough the list of printers included a HP device. Now here is the thing:

Years ago, in the days of XP, I bought a HP scanner. When Windows 7 came out, the scanner driver was incompatible with 7 and HP refused to provide a driver for Win 7. So since that time HP products were banned from our house. There is no HP printer in our house or connected to our network!

Why did Windows install a totally unknown HP printer on my machine, probably with the last update? Mad | :mad:

I managed to remove the printer from my setup, but this really p**** me off.

Ok, I have had my coffee, so you can all come out now!

Are you connected via rdp to somewhere, or were you at some recent before? Modern windows will attempt to autocreate printer it finds on the remote lan.

Barring That, get a mac. Big Grin | :-D

There was an article in yesterday's CP daily news about the last Windows update installing some HP software even when there was no HP hardware present. MS said they were looking into it. Maybe your new phantom printer was added with that update, perhaps with some additional HP software.

"HP" and "malware" in the same sentence.

Now you're just being redundant.

this.

Occurrences like this make me shudder. We simply have no idea what MS pushes out under the context of "security" updates. But it's going to be fine, because the EULA says so. Then comes pulls from github, updates for linux, and I suspect no one is watching the store.
