    Workaround:

    Instead of using the remote repository's shared network path (\\ComputerName...), give it a drive letter (Z:...) with File Explorer's "Map network drive.."

    The error squiggles, etc. go missing even if the project is on the local machine but the network path is used.

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

    Please try the following:

    1. Update your VS2022 to the latest version with Visual Studio Installer and launch it again.
    2. Enter “devenv /ResetSettings” at Developer Command Prompt for VS 2022 to restore your Visual Studio default setting.
    3. Close all running VS instances and delete the hidden .vs, bin and obj folders in the project folder.
    4. Rebuild the project.
    5. Create a new project and check that it works properly.
    6. Ensure you are using "Build + IntelliSense" in the Error List window.

    Best regards,

    Jill Zhou
