Visual Studio 2015 - User tasks gone?
ide, task, visual-studio, visual-studio-2015
Solution
The documentation on MSDN has been updated with this paragraph:
The user task feature has been removed in Visual Studio 2015. When you open a solution which has user task data from Visual Studio 2013 and earlier in Visual Studio 2015, the user task data in your .suo file will not be affected, but the user tasks will not be displayed in the task list.
If you wish to continue to access and update your user task data, you should open the project in Visual Studio 2013 and copy the content of any user tasks into your preferred project management tool (such as Team Foundation Server).
Problem
I've recently switched from Visual Studio 2013 to 2015 and converted all of my old projects. However, now I can't seem to find my user tasks anymore? There used to be a drop-down menu in the task list, but it looks like that's gone in the new version, unless I'm missing something. Have user tasks been removed? If so, is there a way I can still retrieve them from my project?
