Last night my configuration manager suddenly stopped working.

This is C# 2005 Express Edition

I can not switch from release or debug in any existing or new projects...
Anyone have any ideas?

Forgive me if you've already checked/tried these:

1. Have you installed any new software since it last worked correctly? If
so, uninstall and check.
2. Have you scanned for viruses, malware lately?

3. Have you tried a repair install of the Express product (if other steps
fail)?

No new software...  It was working, I had just been debugging an issue in my
code.
Fixed the problem, then hit another issue to debug and noticed my
breakpoints were not hitting.  Then noticed that the whole configuration
manager was not working.

McAffee, and Spybot both say I am clean.

Did a repair and it didn't work, I'm going to do a full install and
re-install (although I hate that solution).

Hi Scott,

Can you go to Tools, Options menu, Project and Solutions, General section
and check the "Show Advanced Build Configurations" checkbox?

Worked!

Of course it still doesn't explain why it stopped in the first place.
But saved me from uninstalling.
