  1. DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path 'D:\ncrunch\workspace\56184\132\...

    Sorry for the time it's taken for me to get back to you on this. I've done another dive on long path handling with NCrunch ... or rather, I've tried to. Unfortunately, it's been wall after wall. Right now I don't have a way to verify how well NCrunch is able to work with long paths outside of…

  2. NCrunch possibly causes autocomplete delay in VS2026

    Something that might be helpful for diagnosing this is to see if you can get some more data around the actual hang. If it happens for you consistently enough, I'd recommend trying to hook a profiler onto your VS instance and examining what it records. Alternatively, sometimes a simpler option is…

  3. Rider freezes UI very often when combined with NCrunch

    [quote=Der-Albert.com;18843]May was unrelated to the core assignment, was going back to less assigne Cores for NCrunch. Still freezing. I had a .feature file open, which show errors (i installed EAP 8 today). I disabled the Reqnroll Plugin for XUnit (v2) since then no freezes anymore.[/quote] If …

  4. Rider freezes UI very often when combined with NCrunch

    [quote=Der-Albert.com;18840]OK, now I added all Cores also to NCrunch. But I liked that i can limit NCrunch to just 8 Cores, so that my machine has at least a chance to not overheat. May NCrunch could add an alternative way to limit the workload of NCrunch on my machine.[/quote] You shouldn't …

  5. Rider freezes UI very often when combined with NCrunch

    [quote=Der-Albert.com;18838]Ok, did that. 28 Cores... yeah,in theory fine. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/232161/intel-core-i713850hx-processor-30m-cache-up-to-5-30-ghz/specifications.html Also in a beefy HP Laptop with better cooling.... but still no good. The plan was a…

  6. Rider freezes UI very often when combined with NCrunch

    Try setting the cores for the IDE to EVERY core on your system (i.e 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27). It should be safe to overlap with NCrunch cores. The core splitting system was originally designed back when we were using quad-core machines. I doubt we…

  7. Rider freezes UI very often when combined with NCrunch

    So this issue finally started happening for me with relative consistency, or at least, it started showing up when it felt like it. I've been trying to analyse it for a few weeks now, and I'm presently working on a theory that it's being caused by NCrunch's CPU affinity handling. As with VS, NCru…

  8. Start debugging from NCrunch inside Rider does not work most times

    I've reproduced the issue now. Will see what I can do about fixing it. Thanks for the heads up.

  9. Mirror the Rider KeyBindings for NCrunch Test Window

    Thanks for sharing this. Keymaps are somewhat of a nightmare for a tool like NCrunch. It's possible to spend months on tooling and specialised integration to try and find a clean way to implement them, and even then they are still not likely to be right. The approach I've taken is to simply h…

  10. Start debugging from NCrunch inside Rider does not work most times

    Thanks for sharing this. I haven't seen this problem myself. So there's a catch here. Could you submit a bug report after it fails? The report might yield some interesting clues. A few more questions to help narrow this: - Does the operation actually set a visible breakpoint? - Can you de…

  11. NCrunch 5.21.0.10 blocks Rider 2026.1.2 project template expansion and prevents solution load comple

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. It looks to me like something is exploding during initialisation. Does the NCrunch corner menu allow you to submit a bug report after the failure? If so, can you send one through? The logs will likely indicate the source of the problem. Another way to inve…

  12. Rider 2026.2 EAP support

    Here's a build that targets 2026.2 EAP4. It passes smoke tests. I can't guarantee mileage though. I hope it works well for you. [url=https://s3.amazonaws.com/downloads.ncrunch.net/NCrunch_Console_5.22.0.3.msi]NCrunch_Console_5.22.0.3.msi[/url] [url=https://s3.amazonaws.com/downloads.ncrunch.n…

  13. DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path 'D:\ncrunch\workspace\56184\132\...

    [quote=nikize;18819]This is on vs2026 Since we in the first case see nCrunch.Common.IO.FilePath in the stack, I assume that it is the ncrunch process that hits this, maybe there is other cases as well, but the first case shouldn't happen if long path support was working in the ncrunch process.[/quo…

  14. DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path 'D:\ncrunch\workspace\56184\132\...

    [quote=nikize;18816] My thinking of the documentation page is to under the "to long path" header have something like: "You might see things like: `System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path`" The reason for me being adamant about having the exception in the documentati…

  15. DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path 'D:\ncrunch\workspace\56184\132\...

    Thanks for sharing this. As you can probably guess, NCrunch has a long history when it comes to issues with long paths. After fighting to find ways of improving this for many years, I've come to the conclusion that there isn't a safe way to report this problem without an extremely high chance of…

  16. Rider 2026.2 EAP support

    Hi, thanks for letting me know. It's my general policy not to post builds for the Rider EAPs because they are a very fast moving target, but if there's an opportunity to do so, I will.

  17. Is Visual Studio required on a grid node

    Hi, thanks for posting. Sadly, it's hard to provide more detail about this in the documentation, because it depends entirely on the toolsets being used. In theory, it IS now possible to run a grid node without VS installed, through the use of the Dotnet SDK. Install the version of .NET that…

  18. Error not picked up

    I've isolated the issue. It's exactly as you've described it. Xunit collapses the tests but not the results messages. NCrunch hasn't been handling the collapsed results correctly and passing subresults are wiping the result state. I've implemented a fix if you'd like to give it a try: [url=ht…

    Sorry for the delayed response on this. I'm taking a look at the problem and will get back to you soon.

  20. Error not picked up

    Hi, thanks for sharing this. A test that hides a failing result is definitely not ok. Can you share the declaration of your TestCase type? I think what's happening here is that the two tests are being internally identified as the same test, because the runner has no way to tell them apart (Test…
