The answer is: 42

I'm having some very strange problems lately with my Visual Studio. From time to time, a random feature just stops working. From not being able to pin/unpin windows, through random component not installed/missing, to just not being able to even start the IDE.

Some of the problems go away after restarting Visual Studio. Some of the problems go away after restarting Windows. Some of the problems just STAY!

After asking "Deep Thought" for the ultimate answer to life, I got it, and it was 42...

Naaah. Actually asking google was helpful in a way. It gave me some clues on what can I do to "reset" Visual Studio without reinstalling it or even worse, the whole Windows. The answer was:

devenv /resetskippkgs

Remember this one. You will need it. Sooner or later, but you will. It solves a lot of different issues.

And what does it actualy do? Nothing destructive i might hope!
<br>My problems start when i enable ajax on my modules, simple stuff like selecting a row in a gridview seems to fail at random. But i'm a bit reluctant using a command on my pc which i don't know.

Afaik, it resets the Visual Studio's list of modules to skip while loading.
I've run it many times - never suffered from it.
Then again My VS was already in such a bad state, that I had little to loose.

I don't think it will help with your AJAX issues though.
