Viewing all 'suggestions' in a solution - c#

Newbie question, I've just switched from Visual Studio to Rider, so I'm still trying to get my bearings.
Trying to use the code analyzers and see the suggestions for the entire solution.
The errors/warnings I can see in the 'Errors In Solution' window but the suggestions are not listed there. Can I add them to that list somehow?, or is there a different window?
Edit:
It's not just the Roslyn analyzers, for example a spelling mistake shows up highlighted in the source as as 'suggestion'.
When opening the 'Errors in Solution' I would have expected those to also be there but they aren't.

You should just need to enable them.
See Rider Roslyn Analyzers settings for the docs.

#jdphenix gave a link in the documentation where I was able to continue reading and found the answer.
The docs in question can be found here:
https://www.jetbrains.com/help/rider/Reference__Windows__Inspection_Results.html
First I had to do "Code => Inspect Code...", select solution and only after that an "Inspection Result" window becomes available, that's where it's listed.
Not very user friendly for new users :)

Pass the Debugging from Assemby/NuGet Package, OxyPlot

Good afternoon,
I had to use a graph for my project so i downloaded two NuGet Oxyplot.Core Oxyplot.Wpf.
Which is great but every time I do F11 and try to debug through my code it always ask me where is oxyplot.cs.
So following on internet did some setting and visual studio downloaded the file and now rather than showing the error about where is the oxyplot.cs.
Is it opens it and i have to go though all the code of oxyplot which i dont wanted to. All i wanted was to pass the debugger when comes anything related to the Oxyplot.
I tried to keep DebuggerStepThroughAttribute, but since the file is readonly i cannot modify it.
I have looked over stack for answer, but still now i cannot pass my debugger and just check my code.
Is there any solution you guys can suggest please. I saw some solution but has not worked for me yet. Following in my setting for debugging settings
Try to disable 'Managed Compatibility Mode'. This option forces VS to use old debugger.

How disable error warnings in Visual Studio Code? [duplicate]

The below popups have started showing up recently in vscode. Is there a way to turn these off? I couldn't find an option for it in settings.json
I already use the problems menu in vscode a lot which has a full list of warnings/errors, so I don't need an additional popup telling me what's wrong.
I posted the answer below back in July and then an overeager moderator deleted it today:
I believe this error is coming from an extension you have installed. Please try tracking down which extension is the root cause and opening an issue against them
This is the correct answer and the poster found that the prettier extension was causing this issue.
We do not provide a means to turn off or suppress these error messages because they are errors and will impact the VS Code experience. If you are seeing an error, file an issue against the extension that is causing it or VS Code itself if you believe the issue is not caused by an extension

Visual studio cannot start debugging because the debug target is missing [duplicate]

When I try to build my solution, I get the following error:
Visual Studio cannot start debugging because the debug target 'c:\target' is missing. Please >build the project and retry, or set the OutputPath and AssemblyName properties appropriately >to point at the correct location for the target assembly.
My output path is set correctly to bin\Debug, but the exe is never created in that folder. Instead, all I get are the exe.config, vshost.exe, and vshost.exe.config files.
Any idea what's going on?
Make sure that output path of project is correct (Project > Properties > Build > Output path)
Go in menu to Build > Configuration Manager, and check if your main/entry project has checked Build. If not, check it.
Go to properties > Application , and select the output type of your project
I've had the same problem;
Here are solutions that didn't work for me:
Building/rebuilding entire solution
Making sure the output path was correct (MyProject > Properties > Build > Output > Output path)
Here's the solution that did work for me:
Rebuilding just the project
You could open the project file with a text editor and replace 'c:\target' by 'bin\Debug'
EDIT
There are other more helpful answers but I can't delete mine since it's the accepted one.

steps for changing target path is
Go to Properties
Then go to Debug
Browse the Start external program and select the bin/Debug/.exe file
I have solve this type of problem follow this step
1.VS2010 right click on the solution explorer and select the Build.
Again press Ctrl+F5 or F5
You can try the following steps to resolve the problem.
Step 1:
Right click on the solution and select the property
Step 2:
In Configureation property select the Build option button
I just stumbled across this problem, but I'm using Visual Web Developer Express 2010 and couldn't find any wrong path either within IDE or in the project file. Rebuilding or deleting build folders didn't help.
But after examining the projects .user file, which I've never done before, I discovered that the bad path was in there. Very simple if one knows where to look.
I had the same problem and the real solution was embarrassingly easy:
If, in your project, Visual Studio has never successfully compiled the program (before finding the first bug), you will get this error. What I did was remove all offending code (in my case, leaving just a simple button1_Click with no code). Run/Compile the code one time; exit the running program, and this message goes away.
The Compiler builds various directories and files on a first successful compile and these are used by the debugger. I am now recommending with all new projects, define the form, compile, close, and then begin coding.
I've found that this can happen if all the files are deleted from the bin folder. ReBuild the app to force a full build: right click on the project in solution explorer and select ReBuild.
Please follow the below steps to overcome this problem:
If you are working with VS2010, change platform target to x64
Select .net framework as 3.5
If you are using any custom code for Sharepoint and like to debug or deploy the use the above....and my bad sake i dont abt the .net applications
I had this error too (in VS2010), and in my case (two projects in one solution, with one being for unit tests) the answer was to go into the solution's (not the project's) properties and set a single startup project. I would've thought it also necessary, in that project's settings, under Application, to specify the "Startup Object", but it's working for me with or without that.
Although this has already been answered, I found that my own solution was none of the above. Admittedly a rookie mistake, within my solution I had multiple projects, and thus when trying to run solution, the wrong project was set as the Startup Project.
So in my own case, not to say others, the solution was to right click the project and select Set as Startup Project
I tried everything mentioned in this thread but none worked.
Then, i tried the simplest thing and it worked.
Close visual studio and open it back up again.
This was a really annoying error!
I kept trying to start a debug instance but it just wouldn't make an exe! Though there were errors in my ConnectionString (while trying to make an SQL connection). There were two backslashes that were supposed to be a part of a path and the tutorial I was following told me to ignore it.
Well, turns out that was the error. A backslash marks the beginning of some escaping that you want to do, and the way to have a backslash displayed is \\ instead of \.
Got rid of that, and it worked for me.
EDIT: It would seem that you have to get rid of the tiny errors that you have made while writing your code to let it compile properly.
I have solved this problem by changing the Platform Target to "any CPU".
If the above explanation does not help you, then you could have error in the program. I have the same issue and I solved it as I cut the functions used in the same class and one of the functions were the cause of it.
I had a very very similar problem, but almost non of the solutions worked for me, finally when i reset the VS setting, it fixed...
To reset settings:
Tools Menu >
Import and Export Settings >
Select Reset all settings radio >
Next >
Next (You can backup your current settings in this step) >
Finish
Problem:
The problem was I had bad nuget source configuration, so the solution could not start properly despite the fact it was build correctly because it still saw old dll references.
Solution:
It was not enough to change nugget source url, I just had to remove entire nugget source and add it again with proper url.
Clean solution and rebuild it.
There are many issues that can lead to this problem, after losing 2 days to this issue I think I have the root cause of this issue and also the problem of the Form Designer throwing an error when switching to the Design view (also seems to effect the DataSet Designer):
A language syntax error that Intellisense doesn't catch.
Once I went through my code with a fine tooth comb I found a couple of really boneheaded mistakes that I kept overlooking, once those were resolved the solution compiled just fine and the output was in the correct place.
Here is the solution for this problem, no need to change anything for this problem.
You all know C# is case sensitive language and we have to write all methods and statements in correct case.
We all are just missing this thing and we just have to change method 'main() --> Main()'
This thing solved my problem please let me know if you still find any :-)

No intellisense in VS2010

I've got no intellisense at all in my VS2010 installation.
I've look at the answers on here, the relevant boxes in Tools->Options are selected and I've tried the "Ctrl-alt-space" shortcut that is also mentioned but nothing.
It's not even showing "Go to definition" when I right click on a variable or auto-tabbing new lines to the right place.
Any hints?
I've tried repairing my installation - I'm not sure if my attempts to install it on my second drive (which I then abandoned) have resulted in some issues but any help would be appreciated.
For the record, if anyone finds this later I had to use:
http://archive.msdn.microsoft.com/vs2010uninstall
To uninstall and then reinstall VS2010.
Have you tried:
Tools->Import and Export Settings-> select "Reset all Settings"
I was having the exact same problem in vs2008. All of my settings were correct in Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> All languages -> Statement Completion as well.
After much searching, I decided to try to close out of every open source file, close the solution and re-open it. Then re-open the affected source file. This fixed the issue for me and intellisense/Go To Definition returned to full functionality. Unfortunately I can't back this up with hard science/any logic whatsoever, but it did the trick for me. Sorry for the anecdotal answer but thought I would share.
