VS 2017 Client not showing folder structure for check out

[pclaar]

The check out dialog is no longer showing files by folder:



Compare this to the check-in dialog:



How do I restore the ability to see folder in the check-out dialog?

Thanks!

Did you change between VSS and CVS style? That is set in the Vault Tools - Options - Concurrent Development Style. In CVS mode there is a button to choose which way it displays the files, and that is the only way I found I could reproduce what you are seeing.

Hi Beth,

I tried switching between VSS and CVS styles and the dialog remains the same.

After you changed styles, did you not have the buttons at the top to change to a tree view? Can you post a screenshot? Check this first.

If still no change, then shut down all of your Visual Studio clients. After they are closed, go to your registry at HKCU\Software\SourceGear\Vault<or VaultPro>\Client\Settings. Look for the registry string for "VsipCheckoutDialog." Rename that string to something else, such as VsipCheckoutDialogOLD, and then restart VS and test it. Any change?

[If you are running Visual Studio as administrator, then you need to change the keys for administrator.]

Hi Beth,

Thanks for the reply. Changing from VSS to CVS and back had no effect. Screenshot below.

But, renaming the registry key did work! I still do not have the toolbar but the directory tree structure has returned

VSS mode:



CVS mode:



After the regedit key was renamed (VSS mode):



Thanks so much for your help!

How it displays in VSS mode is what you were wanting, right?

I can't make the icons on check out I thought I saw come up again, so I may have made an error when I tried it. No one else here can either, so my mistake.

Yep, this view is what I needed. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for reporting back the dialog is back to its original view.
