Visual Studio RelatedFiles Registry Key Mysteriously Overwritten -


in order organize t4-generated files within solution, , per this excellent answer, have .reg file use add key , 3 values under following visual studio registry key (currently formulated vs 2015):

hkey_current_user\software\microsoft\visualstudio\14.0_config\projects\{fae04ec0-301f-11d3-bf4b-00c04f79efbc}\relatedfiles\

periodically , intermittently, find key has been overwritten , must run .reg file again restore custom visual studio behavior. have seen happen every few months or so, many years, across several versions of windows , vs, on many machines, , 3 different domains (on 1 of sole admin). there's no obvious (to me) temporal association between overwrites , either group policy or visual studio updates, best guess either visual studio periodically performing sort of self-"repair", or else windows updates overwriting these keys reason.

what mechanism causing (or how go detecting myself)?

more importantly, method best practice either prevent overwrites or automatically "repair" them when disappear? know use group policy (where domain admin) force registry entries, don't have gpo admin rights @ every site work, , i'd prefer option less serverfault-y , more stackoverflow-y, particularly because haven't yet identified root cause.

you can think of 14.0_config key volatile cache of vs’s configuration data particular user. combination of hklm\software\microsoft\visualstudio\14.0 , pkgdef files coming vs extensions.

source: all regkeys belong us

so, in addition 14.0_config can try add registry data 14.0 key.
