    <p>If everything has worked fine and then stopped, usually it means there were some problem even though it had passed unnoticed.</p> <p>Things I would try one after another:</p> <ol> <li>Check which files were changed (why and how) after update from a source control engine</li> <li>Review the list of extensions and plugins. Try to disable all or some of them</li> <li>Close Visual Studio and kill all the development processes: <code>devenv, mspdbsrv, vcpkgsrv, msbuild, msvsmon, vshub, vstest</code> etc</li> <li>Remove <code>.suo, .ncb, .VC.db, .VC.VC.opendb</code> files of the solution as well as <code>.vc</code> directory, which sometimes cause problems</li> <li>Remove project setting files, sort of <code>YourProjectName.vcproj.DOMAINNAME.LOGINNAME.user</code> or <code>YourProjectName.csproj.user</code>. The setting file name depends on a project kind you use</li> <li>Run <code>"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio [vs_version]\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" /setup</code> or <code>"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio [vs_version]\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" /setup</code> for x64 environment</li> <li>In some complex cases, it helps to remove user settings, located in home <code>%USERPROFILE%\AppData\[Local|Roaming]\Microsoft\VisualStudio[vs_version]</code> and in registry <code>HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio[vs_version]</code></li> </ol> <p>It should reset all things to the beginning state. If it won't work, so there are additional tools to investigate. Download <a href="http://live.sysinternals.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Process Explorer</a> and once IDE freezes, start the Process Explorer, find the devenv process, double-click on it and go to Threads tab. Check, which thread has the biggest switch delta in case of the freeze, double-click on it and take the name (or offset) of the top function. It gives additional info where the problem may be.</p> <p>Moreover, sometimes it helps to repair Visual Studio in the "Add or Remove Programs" wizard in Control Panel.</p>
