.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / IDE / March 2008How to force restore of recovered files
How do I force or trigger Visual Studio and also Management Studio to offer to restore recovered files? Last week, Visual Studio offered to restore files days after a Visual Studio 2005 crash and after I had redone all of the work. it was a little late by then to recover but at least I took advantage of the offer to trackdown where the backups were at for future reference. Today, my entire PC locked up. I had to power cycle to recover. This time, I was working in Management Studio and not Visual Studio. I opened Management Studio after rebooting and there was no offer to recover files. I made a backup copy of the backed up files that should have been recovered and worked from that to continue my work. At least I didn't have to redo most of it. I'd really like to know why Visual Studio doesn't offer the recovered files on the next start. It seems like the VS team may have gotten this code from the Office team since Word tends to offer recovered files sometimes weeks or even months after a crash. Even more, I'd like to know how to trigger a recovery so I don't have to browse to the backed up files and copy/paste them back to my project folder. Thanks, Dale If it hasn't saved the files, then it can't offer to restore them. You can find the settings for restore in Tools...Options and you can modify the intervals when the backed up copies get made. > How do I force or trigger Visual Studio and also Management Studio to > offer [quoted text clipped - 34 lines] > > Dale The files are saved and I copied the data out myself but there was no offer to restore. My question is how to trigger the restore. The last time VS offered to restore backups was several days later even though VS was opened several times in between. So what triggers the offer if it is not starting Visual Studio? Dale > If it hasn't saved the files, then it can't offer to restore them.

Hello Dale, Thanks for your waiting. I have changed all the setting in VS IDE and Visual Studio Command Line. The recover dialog prompt automatically when VS IDE detected crash. I'm afraid to say we cannot force VS IDE to recover file. However, as you seen, you can get backup file from backup folder if you want to recover files manually. This seems the only way to recover file by ourselves... Anyway I will continue performing research on this issue. If I can get any useful information, I will also pass it to you. Again, if you have any more concern, please feel free to let us know. We are glad to assist you.

Hello Dale, Thanks for your waiting. I have consulted VS product team. It seems they have found some issue in VS 2005 that AutoRecover doesn't always work after a crash, and fixed the issue in VS2008. We'd like to recommend upgrading if you can. But, there is no way to force AutoRecover dialog to appear. We are indeed sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.
