Hi,

There are lots of options and lots of different Visual Studio Ide's

So let's start with knowing which Ide you are using and also please post a screen shot (picture) of your Ide with some code in it.

Thanks

Thanks for the info. You do not have any color coding at all!

It's possible you installed Visual Micro after installing Atmel Studio but before running Atmel studio once (for the first time)

We discovered that Atmel creates it's registry keys when it starts for the first time, not when it is installed. We are changing how we work for this reason.

Please close the ide, then run the Visual Micro installer and click Remove. Then run the installer again and click Install.

I think that will fix it for you.

Great, yes we are going to alter the installer to cater for this.

Thanks for raising the issue.
