Amit Patriwala

Find option is not working in the visual studio environment. solved this issue follow the below steps.

steps :

1) open the visual studio in safe mode using command devenv/safemode

go to command prompt and type your visual studio path. in my pc is

” C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE ”

it work then the problem either the cause should be third-party applications, services or Visual Studio Add-ins.

if find is not working yet then follow the 2nd step.

2) open the command prompt and type your visual studio path. in my pc is

” C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE ”

    A much easier option worked for me: Go to your Visual studio menu -> Window -> Reset window layout and your find window magically appears 🙂
