Show CodeRush Xpress 9.2 Menu in Visual Studio

5 Comments Uncategorized

As promised to the people of my last post for CodeRush Xpress 9.1, here is the updated scripts for CodeRush Xpress 9.2, which was released last week.

The Keyboard Command Way

Shift+Ctrl+Alt+O

The Registry Hack Way

I really wish DevExpress would stop treating the registry as a dumping ground and creating a new parallel registry path with each new install, it makes customizing the registry settings very difficult to keep up with. I could see it for each major version, but common is a new registry path really needed for each minor version?

    Thanks for the tip. I just downloaded CodeRush 9.3, and had the same problem.
    I thought I was going nuts that no menus or toolbars were shown after installing.
    So, I re-installed it again to have the same result (no menu/no toolbar).

    Google led me to your post…
    And I had to go hack the registry to make the menu appear.
    VERY weird.

    Thanks again.
    John

    Hi,

    In Code Rush Express 11 ,

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Developer Express\CodeRush for VS\11.2]
    “HideMenu”=dword:00000000

    does not exist.
    So just create a dword key with value 0 and BINGO. We have access.

    if (CodeRushExp.Version == 11.2 && System.Archirecture == x64)
    {
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Developer Express\CodeRush for VS\11.2]
    “HideMenu”=dword:00000000
    }
