Visual Studio 2012 - State Does Not Update for Content Window When Starting New Session

Question

I have an issue where the state of my VS2012 application does not update. I have the same three code files opening in the content window every time I start Visual Studio. These are not the last files I was working on. I bet it is a caching problem. Would deleting the .suo file fix this, or would that fubar the application? Any ideas where my cache is failing here?

Answer 1

It has been four weeks with no answers ... so I finally figured this out on my own. I hate answering my own questions, but here it is:

The SUO file is where all the settings, startup project, and cached user options are kept. With large projects there are times where the .suo file becomes corrupted or too large causing sluggish, or odd behavior with these options. Case in point the outlier I ran into with my open classes not being remembered.

Solution: Simply delete the .suo file. Visual Studio will create a fresh one for you. I did this and it solved the problem.
