Management Studio Templates that wont go away!

  • Hi all,

    I delete the template folder in SSMS and it no longer appears in the Template Explorer. I check the template folder (C:\Documents and Settings\jonathon.prosper\Application Data\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\Shell\Templates\Sql\) and the folder does not exist there anymore either. Then I restart Management Studio and the folder reappears in both the template explorer and the template folder!

    Does SSMS save templates in a different location other than the folder above and "imports" the templates into this folder? I noticed that if I removed all the MS shipped templates elsewhere SSMS simply regenerates them next time I start it also.

  • Just close the template explorer (there is an x on top right hand side) if it annoys you, don't try to remove it.

  • I think you misunderstood.

    There are folders within the template explorer I am trying to remove, not the template explorer itself.

    Folders that I remove from the template explorer keep reappearing the next time I open SSMS.
