Visual Studio 2005 Empty Tab

posted Tuesday, January 17, 2006 1:20 PM

Working in Visual Studio 2005 as usual... then all of a sudden... oops, what's this?

The always helpful empty tab with No Icon.

I believe this is a bug in the TFS Beta 3 Refresh client. I now get an error about a source control plugin not being installed properly error message. I've never seen this problem before until installing the client recently.

 

And also, to get rid of the empty tab: expand the tab, right click the header, and select hide.

Resync Windows Time

posted Thursday, January 12, 2006 3:31 PM

Quick tip, if you have to change your system clock for whatever reason, you can have your Windows clock resync to the correct time by using this command:

w32tm /resync

Since our computers are on a domain, the default behavior is to sync with the domain controller. If you have a personal Windows desktop, the default configuration is to sync with time.windows.com. Of course the w32tm command can do much more than resync your desktop time, but for our purpose, it is simple and works great!
