No xaml color formatting in visual studio 2012

visual-studio-2012, xaml

Solution

I've had this exact same issue. The solution is:

- close all running instances of Visual Studio

- open a "Run" window and type in `devenv /resetuserdata`

That's it. Open your projects again and everything should work fine. Beware: your personal settings will be lost. Recently opened projects list also.

Problem

This is the second time i have installed VS 2012 and the first time the color formatting for xaml was working but not anymore. If i can change some element in the tools -> fonts and colors but i cant get the normal default scheme back with the blue | red | yellow look, even if i change back to defaults. Any help would be nice. Thanks
