Visual Studio 2010 keeps defaulting to VB.NET projects instead of C#, I imported my saved settings from 2008 which defaulted to C# projects which did not resolve the problem..

I always accidentally create VB.NET projects then slap myself in the face as I then proceed to delete the project and recreate a C# version of it.
