On the current project I am working on, there is, at the moment, a large churn of code, which means updating from source control can mean at times many csproj file changes. As we all know, VS2010 doesn’t have a “Reload all” button, but you must reload each project and confirm each reload.
Is there a method where either the project is auto-reloaded or the IDE can detect this and ask for a solution reload?

Quoting from the site:
Quite often Iâll find myself working
in situations where multiple projects
have changed, and Visual Studio asks
to reload them, one at a time. This
happens when Iâm working a lot with
source control, and doing things like
switching branches, performing merges,
or just integrating upstream changes.
I have to click âReloadâ a million
times for each project that changed on
disk, and itâs quite annoying. On top
of that, VS forgets which files I have
open, so every file that I was working
on gets closed.I may be the last VS user to find out
about this, but a free lite version of
the VSCommands plugin is available on
the Visual Studio Gallery that does
just what I need â reload all changed
projects at once, preserving which
files I had open:
