How do you clear your Visual Studio cache on Windows Vista?


The accepted answer gave two locations:

here

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp\VWDWebCache

and possibly here

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\WebsiteCache

Did you try those?

Edited to add

On my Windows Vista machine, it's located in

%Temp%\VWDWebCache

and in

%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\WebsiteCache

From your additional information (regarding team edition) this comes from Clear Client TFS Cache:

Clear Client TFS Cache

Visual Studio and Team Explorer provide a caching mechanism which can get out of sync. If I have multiple instances of a single TFS which can be connected to from a single Visual Studio client, that client can become confused.

To solve it..

For Windows Vista delete contents of this folder

%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Team Foundation\1.0\Cache


I experienced this today. The value in Config was the updated one but the application would return the older value, stop and starting the solution did nothing.

So I cleared the .Net Temp folder.

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files

It shouldn't create bugs but to be safe close your solution down first. Clear the Temporary ASP.NET Files then load up your solution.

My issue was sorted.


I had the same issue but when i deleted the cached items from Temp folder the build failed.

In order to make the build work again I had to close the project and reopen it.
