Visual Studio 2010 - Open existing Sketch - Blank Project and Crash

I am opening an existing sketch via the File --> Open --> Arduino Project and it opens the Solution with 0 Projects.   

Ok maybe that is what is should do at first.

I then rick click on the Solution in the Explorer and click Add existing Item and choose the ino file.It then says "Would you like to open an arduino project for sketch 'ProjectName' and I click ok.  "Visual Studio has encountered a problem and needs to restart" then restarts VS with nothing open.

I just installed today and have restarted everything.

Thanks for any help

Hi,

If you open a sketch that way it should create a project and add all the sketch files (ino) to the project so something is wrong.

Can you open vs and create an empty c++ Win32 project using "File>New>Project"? This is a non-arduino project simply to test that the standard c++ system is installed in VS correctly?

Thanks

I probably made a dumb mistake.  I am not a C/C++ developer so all I have installed was the C# and visual options.   

I suppose I need to update that in order to start using this tool.  I will update VS and see that that brings, thanks for the VERY quick reply.

I would just like to say I already like it more than the Arduino IDE.  Its a familiar IDE that I am already familiar with and has a better feel to it.

I can disconnect the UNO as long as I close the serial monitor and not have to cycle the COM #'s in the device manager to get it working again. The Arduino IDE has to be closed to disconnect the USB without causing an issue, atleast for both of my Win 7 x64 machines.

More reviews to come once I really start in.
