I'm using Visual Studio 2008 Team Development Edition and my Project properties page will not display. I right-clicked the project name and selected "Properties" and no page displayed as it normally would. Also, when I double-click the Settings.settings the normal Settings GUI does not display. I only see the XML in the Settings.settings file. Please Help. Thanks.

The properties page can be displayed when not doing anything else.
Try going to View -> Properties Window and see if its displayed. Or try the keyboard shortcut CTRL-W, P

I'm not trying to see that properties window. I'm trying to see the project properties window. The place that has all the build settings and where you sign the assembly etc...

Are you using multiple monitors? Or were you at some point, and no longer?
I have noticed the Project Properties window opening on the wrong monitor sometimes. So maybe it does open it but in the old position.
To test this, open VS, open your solution, right-click on your project and select Properties. Now press [Alt+Space], [M], [Right-arrow] and now move your mouse around. The window should move to your current monitor.
There is also a Window->Reset Window Layout menu, which you could try, but it doesn't seem to affect the Project Properties window.

It appears that the uninstallation of an add-on is what caused my problem. Reinstalling Visual Studio did not seem to help, so I took extreme measures and reformatted my machine.
