VS Project List Editor free download, VS Project List Editor download on software download

The VS Project List Editor application was developed to be a tool for editing the "Start Page" Recent Project List in Visual Studio .NET. Anyone who has used Visual Studio to create more than one project or solution has used the "Start Page" to see the most recently used (MRU) projects or solutions. If you are like me, you often have more than one Visual Studio instance opened and have been frustrated by the fact that the list never seems to be "right". In addition I find myself often creating "temporary" projects to test a new idea and don't want to see these projects on my MRU Project List.Visual Studio stores the MRU Projects in the registry under the path HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\XX\ProjectMRUList where XX is the version number of Visual Studio.Visual Studio 2002 - 7.0 Visual Studio 2003 - 7.1 Visual Studio 2005 - 8.0 There is a string value for each recent file named File1, File2, File3, etc. with a value of the full path to the file. Visual Studio updates this list on close, which is the root of some of my problems. Multiple versions of Visual Studio do not communicate about their open projects, nor do they read the current state of the registry and attempt to merge them. On close, Studio clears this key and re-writes out the list as it knows it. My scenario is as follows:- Open a copy of Visual Studio and create Project 1 - Open a second copy of Visual Studio and create Project 2 - Close the second copy of Visual Studio. Project 2 is written out to the Registry. - Close the first copy of Visual Studio. The Key is cleared and Project 1 is written out to the Registry. - Open Visual Studio again to find that it "forgot" about Project 2. Important NoteSince Visual Studio clears and rewrites the list on close, you must have all instances of Visual Studio before using this tool.
