 Post subject: VSS overwrites local files whenever web project is opened

Hi

I am experiencing a strange problem binding my web project from Visual Studio (VB.NET) to Visual Source Safe. Whenever I open the solution file, it retrieves files from VSS and overwrites my local files - losing all my changes!. But all checkin/checkout works asusual. I have no clue why it happens like this. And it happens to this particular web project; if I open other web projects, it is fine. The workaround I have now is to checkin files before closing the solution.

I cannot remove the project from VSS to try to create fresh because I am afraid that it will lose all history and labels etc for the project.

Could someone help me to figure out the cause.

Thanks!

Hi,

Please make sure you have unchecked the "Get everything when opening a solution or project" option. This option can be found at "Visual Studio -> Tools -> Options -> Source Control -> Environment".

Also, please set the "Replace writable files" option to "Ask". This option can be found at "Visual Studio -> Tools -> Options -> Source Control -> Plug-in settings -> Advanced -> Local Files".

Thanks.
