Hello,

I've tried to reinstall my Visual Studio 2022 Pro (version 17.5.4) and NCrunch (version 4.16.0.4), but still NCrunch is not working - blue icon is spinning forever.
I've tried to delete .vs folder - no success.
I've tried to run in compatibility mode - no success


Tested with the simplest unit test (xUnit & MSTests).
Previous version of extensions was removed from VS extensions folder.
Command dotnet test is working as expected.
I could run unit test from VS without any errors.

P.S. Write me if you need diagnostic logs.

Hi, thanks for sharing this issue.

Could you submit a bug report shortly after trying to enable NCrunch? There's an option under the NCrunch menu that should allow you to do this.

The bug report contains a log file that I hope will show me why the engine is failing to initialise.

Thanks for sending through the report.

There is a surprising lack of error information in the log. We may need to do some further investigation on your side to try and narrow down what is happening here.

Has NCrunch ever worked for you before on this system? If so, can you make any guesses on which change may have caused this to start happening?

Does this happen for every solution on your machine? Are there any of the VS project templates that work?

Are you running any other extensions in VS?

Yes, it was working until VS studio update. But for rest of our company NCrunch is working fine.

Yes, for every solution, in different folders.

There is no working templates on this machine.

I've tried NCrunch after re-installing VS, so it was empty. Now I'm using Resharper and CodeMaid. But the same setup was working for me and is still working for others.

Could you try downloading the NCrunch console tool and checking whether this works on your system? This is looking like a problem with your environment. The console tool will tell us if this is something in the underlying toolset, or whether it's VS itself.

I've tried with global NCrunch setting and the one in solution, but I'm not sure that I've ran it correctly.

When the console tool completes its run, it should output a bunch of reports under a subdirectory next to your solution file. This is where you can establish whether the run managed to load the projects and run through the tests (the console logging is not verbose enough to tell from the direct output, though you can change this).

There is no errors running console tool.
I didn't find how to attach any image or log file here :)

OK - This narrows down the problem to VS itself.

Could you try running VS using the following commandline?

devenv.exe /rootsuffix Exp

This should load VS with a different registry root, which will spawn an instance with the configuration entirely reset. My theory is that the problem is caused by a VS configuration issue. Testing NCrunch under the above instance may help us to confirm this.

I've tried, same problem. And I've submitted bug report after this.

Ok, the next thing to try is a complete reset of VS settings, uninstall VS entirely, then reinstall: https://superuser.com/questions/1663409/how-to-fully-reset-all-visual-studio-settings-to-factory-defaults.

I'm hopeful this will solve the issue. If not, the next step will probably be a diagnostic build.
