Something broke my TFS explorer last night.

[NewsBot]

Hi all,

 

When I finished work last night, I had three instances of Visual Studio open - everything saved, but just didn't close down.

 

This morning I come in to find that there were Vista updates overnight and my machine has rebooted (slightly annoying, but my bad for leaving apps open and nothing lost because everything was saved).

 

However, there's something wrong. In my Pending Changes window for TFS, I can no longer filter files by solution - the button is totally greyed out....

This applies to VS.net 2005 and 2008 and it was all working before I left.

 

I've tried all the usual stuff - rebooting, closing and reopening projects/solutions, but nothing is bringing it back, the button consistently remains disabled.

 

My next step is to try reinstalling the TFS explorer tools which I'm going to try now.

 

Has anyone else noticed something similar recently? I'm wondering if the windows update stuff is just a coincidence or not.

 

My specs are Vista x32 ultimate, vs.net 2005 and 2008 with each editions TFS explorer, all service packed. TFS Server is 2005.
