Turn off "Are you sure you want to delete all of the bookmarks?"

This is more of a minor annoyance than a real issue but if anyone has a solution I'd be very appreciative.

When you delete all of your bookmarks from a solution in VS2005 (Ctl+B,Ctl+C) you always receive a confirmation dialog asking you if you're sure you would like to do this; does anyone know a way to disable this confirmation

I've haven't been able to find anything in the Options (though I may have missed it) and I know that some VS options are really surfaced in the UI but can be controlled by registry keys. Has anyone ever ran across how to turn this off

Thanks in advance,

Jeremy

    Yeah. It's pretty annoying.



  • JesseD70

    Is this something that will be customised or removed in a service pack or next product version What was the rationale for introducing it in the first place

    Hi Kevin,

    Nope, unfortunately I haven't. I keep hoping someone from the VS product team at MSFT will see this email and offer a solution.

    Hint, hint, hint...

    Jeremy, have you managed to figure this out It sure is annoying and wasn't there in VS 2003. I vaguely remember having figured this out in my VS 2005 at home but if so I've forgotten how to do it! I also keep forgetting to check that I have indeed disabled it at home. Must remember to check tonight!

    Unfortunately there is no way to disable this dialog in VS 2005.

    Hi Jeremy, well I did check my home install last night and I hadn't figured it out. Must have been thinking of something else.

    I've posted this question to some other forums as well. No answers as yet.
