This article was previously published under Q316093 SYMPTOMS When you use a roaming profile in Microsoft Windows to log
on to your account, Visual Studio .NET or Visual Studio 2005 may not be able to open some project
files or projects on your Visual Studio .NET or Visual Studio 2005 Start Page. CAUSE Visual Studio .NET and Visual Studio 2005 record the full path to the default
project location and the paths to locations from which files and projects were
last saved or opened. When you use roaming profiles, and you log on to a
computer that is not configured the same as the original computer (does not
have the same file structure and drive letters), Visual Studio .NET and Visual Studio 2005 might not
find some files because the file paths are not the same as those on the
original computer.
For example, when you create a project in the
C:\VSProjects\WinApp1 folder on one computer, and then you add a file that is
located in the E:\References folder on that computer, any other computer on
which you open the project must have both a C drive and an E drive. If you open
the project on a computer that does not have an E drive, then the file in the
E:\References folder will not load with the rest of the project. STATUSThis
behavior is by design.REFERENCESFor more information about Windows roaming profiles causing the first-time launch message to be displayed on each startup in Visual Studio 2005, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
