@mansellan Your project fails to compile afterwards, but it's your choice ...so we have an opportunity to be smarter than VS here, and have some kind of visual cue that indicates whether or not it's in use so you know in advance whether removing a reference will break stuff... no?

@MathieuGuindon well yes, but that's why I suggested a dialog. Should it be more immediate than that?

Btw, I'm just an amatuer UX enthusiast, no formal training.

I was thinking of favoring a visual cue over a prompt

as in, you look at the node and know

That's laudible, but is there such a cue that's pre-existing, or would it be bespoke to RD?

Priniple of least surprise

could be as simple as consistently greying out unused refs, whether removable or not (padlock is useful)

That's what I'm suggesting?

and then a tooltip that says "{0} references" would explain why some nodes are black and others are grey

Ooh.. tooltip is a great idea

@mansellan yeah (I think I misread the "greyed or not" parenthese)

Put it this way - I might know, and be told by RD, that reference X is in use and my project won't compile if I remove it. But I remove it anyway, because I don't want it. I progressively remove and change code until the dependency goes away. I did that in VS2019 today.

(I still have to fix what I broke, that's a problem for Monday :-) )

I've never had problems with Rubberduck previously but today it is giving me all sorts of grief ... and the only thing I can think that is different is a windows update!

I'm getting "RubberDuck caused access error" or similar

Firefox on boot ^^

@RobertHind hey Robert, sorry to hear. Is logging enabled? The logs might have some information about specifically what happened.

Sorry for delay in responding ..I've had to uninstall RubberDuck for now ...I'm not sure if I had turned logging on ...I went looking for logs and couldn't find them

the logs should be in %AppData%/Rubberduck/Logs

if there's nothing there, logs probably have been disabled

thanks

thats all there is ..

that seems quite uniformative ... thanks for checking :)

for what it's worth, we're currently preparing the next green release.

A lot of work around the shutdown and unmanaged memory is going into that, so I hope you'll give that a spin when it comes out later this month.

thanks for trying ... I'm going to have to "park" the issue for now and get on without RubberDuck to solve some immediate problems. Yes ... I'll definitely want to use RubberDuck again

Is it possible that anything in the most recent Windows 10 update upset RubberDuck?
