Find option is not working in the visual studio environment. solved this issue follow the below steps.

steps :

1) open the visual studio in safe mode using command devenv/safemode

go to command prompt and type your visual studio path. in my pc is

” C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE “

run above code and check.

it work then the problem either the cause should be third-party applications, services or Visual Studio Add-ins.

if find is not working yet then follow the 2nd step.

2) open the command prompt and type your visual studio path. in my pc is

” C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE “

type below code : devenv /resetsettings

this command is Restores Visual Studio default settings.

now check in the Visual Studio.
