Some keys are not working on my VS2015

The Keys F1 to F12 , are not working. I use a DELL notebook, with windows 10. I put the cursor on top of a class, gave F12 to go to the function and nothing. I gave a F5 and the project did not run. What could be happening?

Weird behavior, but you can try resetting your Visual Studio to the initial settings. But before you do that try to do those basic tests, restart Visual Studio and / or restart your Windows.

Visual Studio offers some command line parameters that can be used to perform a reset on various types of IDE settings, below is a list with a short explanation about each:

To execute them simply open or Run with Win + R and enter the IDE opening command along with the argument (it can be done in other ways, but it's just an example), as follows devenv.exe [/parâmetro].

  • /ResetUserData - Reset all user settings;
  • /ResetSettings - restores the IDE to the default settings and optionally allows you to a specific settings file via one more argument;
  • /ResetSkipPkgs - removes all SkipLoading tags added to Visual Studio packages.
  • /ResetAddin - removes commands associated with a specific Add-in.

You can check the original description of these parameters using devenv.exe /?.

Try to perform these procedures, if it doesn't work maybe the only solution is to reinstall your Visual Studio
