I have recently installed an Add-in for SQL Management Studio for intelisense/refactoring. It has caused my Management Studio to perform so slow that it is unusable. I have uninstalled the product, but it still appears to have affect Management Studio. Is it possible to run without any Add-ins enabled?

A:
No guarantees, but since SSMS is built on a Visual Studio shell, you can try to hold down your left shift key while starting SSMS - this key press disables add-ins in Visual Studio.
Also have a look here for a registry trick.

Thanks, the registry trick seems to be working!
