Troubleshooting Tips

Deveroom is still new, so there might be some glitches, but we are eager to hear about your feedback.

  • If you are in trouble, you should first check the Deveroom pane of the Output Window. You can open it by choosing View / Output from the Visual Studio menu and switch the Show output from dropdown to Deveroom.

  • You can find even more trace information in the log file in the %LOCALAPPDATA%\Deveroom folder.

  • Please register your suggestions and issues in our issue tracker on GitHub.

Going back to an older version

All previous Deveroom releases can be found at the GitHub project releases page. In order to try out an older release, you need to do the following steps:

  • Start Visual Studio, open extension manager ("Tools / Extensions and Updates" or "Extensions / Manage Extensions...")
  • Uninstall current Deveroom version
  • Close Visual Studio and confirm uninstall on the popup dialog
  • Download the vsix file from the releases page matching to the Visual Studio Version (SpecSolutions.DeveroomVisualStudio2017-*.vsix or SpecSolutions.DeveroomVisualStudio2019-*.vsix)
  • Install the downloaded extension by double clicking on the vsix file.
  • Start Visual Studio, open extension manager
  • Deselect the "Automatically update this extension" checkbox (otherwise Visual Studio will reset it back to the latest version on the next restart).
  • You can use the older version now

If you want to reset the extension back to the latest, you can either uninstall the older one and install the latest from the gallery, or select the "Automatically update this extension" option for the older Deveroom extension and wait until Visual Studio refreshes it (you might need to restart Visual Studio a few times).
