ReSharper 6.0 Conflicting with Symantec Endpoint Protection - resharper-6.0

ReSharper 6.0 seems to be conflicting with Symantec Endpoint Protection on my XP Pro SP3 machine at work. It causes the machine to automatically reboot after I randomly do things with ReSharper. If I uninstall 6.0 and install 5.1.3, I see no problem whatsoever.
Anyone else ever encounter this? Anyone know of a solution that would allow me to use 6.0?
I have already posted this question on the forum over at JetBrains (fyi)
JetBrains UPDATE:
There seems to be other people encountering this same issue (without mentioning Symantec). When anything happens to the issue at JetBrains, I will update this question here on stack!
Thanks!

Are you seeing any errors in the Windows Event viewer? What features of SEP are installed on this system? You might try disabling one feature at a time to narrow down the cause of this issue. Also check the SEP logs for anything pointing to ReSharper.
Can you tell me What version of SEP are you running?
P.S. I responded to your tweet, so feel free to DM me there if you wish.

Visual Studio for Mac won't update - Xamarin

Weird issue here. I have Visual Studio for Mac. My mac is fully upto date on the mac sidel. I have updated to Xcode 12.5. I have selected the check for updates option in VSMac. I see that there are a bunch of updates for xamarin on my mac. I selected for it to update and restart, and then nothing happens. VSMac just closes. I'm assuming I have something on my system that VSMac doesn't like. Is there a way to just get the downloads and manually install them?
Here was the way that I solved the problem. I went and downloaded the various pieces that I knew I had specific problems with. This was VSMac, Xamarin.iOS, and Xamarin.Mac. I downloaded those, and then installed the iOS and Mac versions. Everything was still good. Then I installed the most up to date VSMac. It detected the old versions of Mono, Android, and some other stuff, and downloaded and installed them. Now, my current problem is solved. There may still be others, but this got my immediate problem resolved.
Hopefully, this helps someone else in the future.

How to connect to tfs from VSCode 1.17

I have tried to connect to TFS on my VSCode 1.17.2 by installing Visual studio team services.
Please help me to solve the problem
I test the latest VS Code Version 1.22.2 and everything works as expected.
There is a thread talking about the issue here : https://github.com/Microsoft/vsts-vscode/issues/245
It seems an environment issue based on BrianFarnhill's conclusion:
So based on that I've come to the conclusion that the issue I have
here is nothing related to you guys or your extension, but something
to do with this environment for my customer and it impacting on all
extensions.
So, you can try to troubleshoot the issue based on the discussion in that thread.
If that still not work, you can download the latest VS Code Version 1.22.2, then configure it following the guide here, then check if it works for you.
You can also reference my answer in another thread to do that.

DirectX Sample using DXUT Failed to create Direct3D device (Debug only)

Quite a strange problem I have here, I am trying to run the DXUT DirectX 10/11 tutorials from DirectX sample browser. They build fine, but cannot be run in Debug mode, as this triggers the error warning "Failed to create the Direct3D device". This is strange as I can run them in release mode. The strangest thing however is that they use to run in Debug mode, and I swear I changed nothing in the day it ran, and the next day that it didn't. A friend also has the same exact problem, which happened around the same time.
Has anyone ran into this problem and know of a solution, or perhaps know why its happening beyond the obvious, I have a DirectX 11 capable card if you didn't pick that up.
Thanks.
I literally just spent all day trying to fix this exact same problem. Here is the solution which should hopefully fix yours too...
I managed to find this article explaining that a recent update, (26th February 2013 to be exact), caused the older version to mess up:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/chuckw/archive/2013/02/26/directx-11-1-and-windows-7-update.aspx
That explains why it was working fine a few weeks ago, and now it just suddenly stopped working I guess!
Following their advice, I downloaded a trial version of Visual Studio 2012, and after an hour and a half of installation time, and a system restart, you should have all the new DirectX SDK files that you need.
NOTE: You don't even have to use Visual Studio 2012. The new files should fix your issues for Visual Studio 2010 and older versions I presume!
(Before doing this I also installed all the latest drivers, but I don't think that did anything to help, but it's worth upgrading drivers whenever you can, as that has fixed a similar issue I had before).
Hope this helps!!! :)
Somewhere in your code you probably have something along the line of this
#if defined(DEBUG) || defined(_DEBUG)
createDeviceFlags |= D3D10_CREATE_DEVICE_DEBUG;
#endif
If you do take a look at the D3D10_CREATE_DEVICE_DEBUG; on the msdn you will see this
To use this flag, you must have D3D11_1SDKLayers.dll installed;
otherwise, device creation fails.
You should check that you do have that dll in your system or you should reinstall the DirectX SDK.
The automatic IE10 update is what caused my issue of automatic non support of directx development. Simplest solution is downloading standalone win8 sdk at...
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/hh852363
The directx debug layer dll has to be updated.

Why am i getting this error trying to compile an asp.net-mvc app using Parallels on my MacBook

I posted a question on the apple site but someone suggested that I might get a better response on stackoverflow directly since its a visual studio related issue.
I installed parallels on my macbook pro and i installed windows 7 iso via a DVD. at first everything looked fine exception now I am now trying to compile an asp.net-mvc app in visual studio and i get this error over and over
No matter what i click it will eventually progress but this is quite annoying. The same question was asked here but no good answer was given. It almost seems like it think it needs to depend on something from the DVD drive (which it shouldn't)
Can someone please explain why devenv.exe would need the ISO dvd to be connected to my laptop at this point?
after rebooting this problem seems to go away

sourcelinks and fogbugz

I just installed this:
http://www.wholetomato.com/products/sourcelinks/FogBugzBundle.asp
but I don;t seem to be getting any of the functionality in my msdev. I am using 2008 professional.
Anyone have any experience with this tool? it does not seem to work for me at all. I never get the login dialog.
After about a week the Whole Tomato team gave me a solution that worked perfectly. Thanks for the support Mark, etc.
the answer is below
After doing some research, I came
across this page:
http://www.mztools.com/articles/2007/MZ2007009.aspx
that lists several possibilities why
it might not be showing up in the
add-in manager. One of them is:
"There is a reported problem that
happens when MSXML 6.0 is not
installed correctly. In this case the
Add-In Manager doesn't show any
XML-based add-in (using an .AddIn file
for registration). It shows only
registry-based add-ins. So, if the
Add-In Manager is empty when it should
show several installed add-ins (not
only yours), try reinstalling MSXML
6.0."
You might try reinstalling XSXML 6.0,
and see if that helps. Download link
is here:

I'd certainly try that before
reinstalling VS2008.
