A coworker just installed Visual-Studio-2010 Premium from MSDN. The install acted like it worked fine, but when he clicks the "File" menu, he only has "new file". On my installation, I see a "New" menu with a sub-menu that contains Projects, Files, Team Projects.
Any ideas of things to check or how to fix his installation. I think he did a repair already.
Try Tools + Import and Export + Reset. This will restore the menus to their factory settings. This may be necessary when you just installed a new version of VS, as in this case, it imports the menus of the previous version of VS so everything looks familiar. That is not always desirable.
If that doesn t pan out then the next step is to run devenv.exe with the /safemode command line option to ensure this isn t an add-in that s causing problems.
I know this is long over due, but I was just having the same issue on 2013. For some reason, VS was debugging, and that was the reason a new project wasn t available. Hope this helps someone else.
Had same problem. figured it out after reading this question. If you set up visual studio default setting for Visual Basic it doesn t have a new menu but resetting to default settings for Visual C# added it.
This problem occurs when the first launch was clicked "project Management Setting" instead to click "General Development Setting" and missed NEW Project and Toolbox.
