Why the subprojects of my BSP don't uncollapse in VS2008 (Windows CE7)

I am facing a strange problem...

I am working on a BSP with Visual Studio 2008 on a Windows 8.1 virtual machine for a Windows Embedded Compact 7 system. In the solution explorer window, I cannot uncollapse the 'Subprojects' category. When I click on the little '+' on the left of subprojects nothing happens. This is very frustrating since I cannot compile my subprojects independently. I copied the same BSP to another VM and the problem remains.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem ?

Thanks.

Solution

  • I finally found the problem.

    One of the subprojects used a .NET version which did not match the installed one. Being unable to open one of the projects, VS did not open the full list.
