Code Coverage Coloring in VS 2012 not working

As the title says, the coloring is not working. If I to go tools > options and look for 'Coverage Touched' etc in the list of Fonts and Colors, they don't exist there.

If I run the tests with the option to analyse them for coverage, no colors show up in the editor. I have VS 2012 Premium update 3 installed.

I already:

  • resetted usersettings
  • ran in safemode (can't run tests then, so useless)
  • re-installed VS
  • rebooted everything

A colleague of mine used the exact same installer/image, and it works for him...

Any ideas anyone?

Solution

  • I resetted Userdata (for the 10th time) and I noticed that by default it migrates the settings from 2010 or something. I now unmarked that checkbox, and the problem is now solved.

    I'm not 100% sure if the checkbox was the problem, but thats the only difference I can recall.
