visual studio 2015 find and replace not working


After Windows 10 auto installed the Anniversary Update, along with installing Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 (using Visual Studio Enterprise Edition), any time I try to use the Find in Files, or Replace in Files window has a scrambled UI, and no am unable to click / use any of the controls.

I have attached screen shots of the Find in Files, Replace in Files for reference purposes.

Any ideas on how to fix it. Never realized how much I depended on the Find in Files tool until it's been taken away from me!

Solution

  • The issue seems to have fixed itself with the Oct 12 windows update. From looking at the descriptions of the 'Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1607 for x64-based Systems (KB3194798)'. Unable to duplicate this issue anymore
