VS2017 locking in design mode

0

Good afternoon everyone.

I've been having a problem with VS2017 for a few days now, which has irritated me a lot !!

I have a form with a usercontrol developed by me and some grids. One of these grids was bound to a datasource pointed to a class.

As the business rule changed, I erased the datasource and created another based on the new class. From this, every time I change my windows form from class to design mode VS freezes and I can only close by the task manager!

This does not just happen in that particular form, but now ALL the project forms and other projects in the solution are causing the same problem.

To make this even more hilarious, if I open the form in design mode and navigate through it using the Document Outline window, I can quietly select the components and do my work, however if for some reason I click directly in form or any component within it, it locks everything and only closes again through the task manager.

Here's what I've tried:

  • Unlink the TFS solution and bind again;
  • Restore NuGet packages;
  • Debug my usercontrol inside the VS itself (everything working correctly);
  • Remove my usercontrol from the form and try to open (it continues with the same problem).

Looking at the Microsoft forums, there is always that standard response: reboot the computer until it catches fire, clean the temporary files folder, clear the cache of windows, browsers, your email, your phone, and of your desktop, that this has been fixed in the version such that it has to do windows update and a lot of hogwash!

Has anyone ever had this problem and would have a light to give me in this case? I already inform you that uninstalling Visual Studio and installing again is out of the question, otherwise I would have done it already!

Thank you!
