Everytime I open VS 2010 I get this:
The automatically saved settings file 'visual studio 2010\settings\CurrentSettings.vssettings' is not available for write. You can change this file on the 'Import and Export Settings' Tools Options page.
Great ok. I'll export what i've got out and move it to a new location, and then set that as the location to look for the settings file.
Step 1: Fail
Import and Export Settings Wizard > Export selected environment settings > next > next > Dialog dissappears with no information on any file being stored anywhere.
Step 2: Fail
Manually find old CurrentSettings.vssettings
file. Copy to new location e.g. C:\VSSettings\CurrentSettings.vssettings
Tools > Options > Environment > Import and Export Settings > Automatically save my settings to this file:
Change location to C:\VSSettings\CurrentSettings.vssettings
The specified path for the auto-save settings file is invalid. Please enter a valid path.
Clicking on the browse button does nothing. Something has screwed up here, obviously because it couldn't get to the location where my settings WERE being stored.
Step 3: ? How to fix this up
I would prefer to not have to reset my settings because it IS loading some of them from soemwhere.
