Cannot save BIML files in Visual Studio 2017
Hi,
Since a couple of days, me and two colleagues, can't save edited BIML files anymore. Visual Studio opens the BIML file, we can edit them, but trying to save them doesn't do anything (Visual Studio also doesn't notice the changes, it does not shows a * behind the file while editing).
I've already upgraded BIML express to the latest version, but that gives the same result. Visual Studio is version 15.9.4. BIMLExpress is 5.0.63501.0.
Hope you can help,
Walter.

It's working fine now, i did a reinstall of the software and did not install any visual studio updates after that.
Both of our primary BIML developers are experiencing this issue with VS2017 after an update to VS2017. I have also tried the recommended trouble shooting steps listed above including the complete uninstall with Registry key reset and there was no change in behavior. I also completely re-installed Visual Studio and that also didn't change the result. Current work around is to make and save changes in a different text editor, such as Notepad++. Would really prefer to be able to use BIML Express as intended.
Have you tried to use the latest version of BimlExpress? Try following the above steps to completely uninstall, and then when installing use "Run as Administrator" on the installer.
Same problem in VS2019
