I have the opposite problem, VS2010 at work. Keeps vanishing. No error, no nothing, it just goes along with any uncommitted changes.
I'm learning that I actually do quite a bit between each compile as when it happens it takes about 20 minutes to get back to where I was.
Regards,
Rob Philpott.

ctrl s works in VS!
I am in the habit of saving so often (having worked with so many crappy IDEs) that when this happens I lose very little thankfully.

Run it from the command line and see what messages pop out on the console.
Windows 8 is the resurrected version of Microsoft Bob. The only thing missing is the Fisher-Price logo.

So, because I find the object of good design and visually appealing and done in wood (which I like) , I'm automatically an "apple fanbois" ?
I'd rather be phishing!

I said I thought it would be a hit with Apple fanbois.
I don't see where I said anything about you.

Hello, tech support?
Yes, well, you see, I was on vacation for a couple weeks, and when I got home, these termites had started gnawing through my keyboard, and now the spacebar doesn't work.
So I was wondering, is there a warranty on insect damage?

I'm brazilian... Some days ago brazilian crackers defaced NASA site...
Some of the most respected newspapers there are talking they made a mistake and attacked the wrong target... They say the hackers missed NSA and hit NASA...
C'mon, those news... Those reporters know what is need to do this kind of mistake? haha

|

To be honest I'm surprised the newspapers were aware of the difference.

Ya, news there are like copy/paste...

"Spofware" -- the software application that, if it fails, will stop the entire organization from operating.[^]
(I assumed this would be a commonly-used term, as it aptly describes several problematic applications I know of, but a Google search [^] seems to point only to some now-defunct company that apparently succumbed to their own portentious name).
(For that matter, "portentious" should also be a word.)

A company I worked for had multiple mainframes with triple power systems with triple battery backups (literally rooms full of truck batteries and circuits to connect them) and triple diesel generators with automatic sensors to get everything started up as necessary. They used three giant flywheels to smooth the current and provide coverage while backup power systems were being switched in and out as necessary. A beautiful multi-layered, no chance in hell of ever losing power system - and it never did.
However, the water supply to cool said mainframes came in through one pipe from the local town supply and when that got accidentally broken during road repairs the whole data centre went down!
