Why does class view think everything is an inherited class

I recently did the reset of Visual Studio setting. For the last few days I have been restoring what it got rid of (it did fix the problems I was having with the debugger) and now I find something that I would like an explanation of. When I go to Class View and input a property or field name it come back with a "Seach found no results". Now if I just do a text search it finds the property and all the references. This was not as it was so I search for an answer and none was shown in the search. I then clicked the Class View Setting and Show Inherited Members was not selected. Selecting it caused the property to be shown. Now the definition of the class that the property was defined in is: public class ScorersViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged Nothing inherited about it. The definition of the property was: public List<PlayerYearStats2> displayScorers2 again nothing inherited. So my question is why does VS think it is and not show it when the option is not selected. The current version of VS that I am using is Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2022 (64-bit) - Current Version 17.7.7

2024-02-26T15:16:17.8+00:00 One other major problem is that when you open a project with no .cs file open then the Class View will open but is disabled. Once I open a .cs file the disable goes away.

2024-02-26T15:21:34.9633333+00:00 So to update I open the project and then go to Notifications. I click on update and then as usual VS goes into screwed up mode. I get msgs about Build (which I am not doing). So I click the notification and close VS. Then I get a msg that it can't do update if it is already running. At this point I have to wonder if MS is doing this to mess with my head. In many decades of working with VS I have never seen such a poor implementation and I generally spend more time dealing with VS than doing development.

2024-02-26T15:53:30.0233333+00:00 So I did an update as you said. As usual the update stops my work. Is anyone at MS interested in the people who use this product???? When I deploy to my phone (which I could do using previous version) it crashes right away.
To say that this is the worst version of VS is an understatement!!! -

2024-02-26T16:31:12.0333333+00:00 I rolled back VS and release now works on my phone. As per usual (at least now) updates to VS just cause problems.

2024-02-26T19:28:00.3566667+00:00 Since someone from MS wants to defend this product then how about when you get an error and click it to see what it is and get "Oops! No
F1help match was found". This is the level of this product. You get errors and the supposed help is really not there. Things like the inherited classes and a list (huge) of problems with VS. No one at MS seems to want to deliver a good product at least that is what you get when using it. -

2024-02-26T19:52:17.2133333+00:00 Another set of errors.
Now I could go on and on but at some time MS has to start doing QA??? With this one I have to use Task Manager to killl VS , a real sign of a truely useful product.
