Help, I can't function without Resharper. All of a sudden my Alt+Enter ↵ shortcut (to bring up the action list) has stopped working. Anybody experienced this or know how to fix?

Symptom A: the menu pops up for a split second, then goes away. Fix using the following steps in numerical order.

Symptom B: pressing Alt+Enter ↵ does nothing. Fix using Step #2 first then try Step #1 if the issue persists.

  1. Perform a Visual Studio reset:

    • Run cmd.exe as Administrator
    • cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\
    • devenv.exe /ResetSettings

  2. Re-apply Visual Studio keyboard scheme:

    • (VS2013 latest ReSharper) ReSharper > Options > Environment > Keyboard & Menus > ReSharper Platform keyboard scheme: Visual Studio > Apply Scheme > Save. This will reset the shortcut keys for ReSharper.
    • (older versions) ReSharper > Options > Environment > General > Visual Studio Integration > Apply
