ReSharper faultily marking variables and usings as unused

All of a sudden ReSharper marks variables and 'using' statements as not used anywhere and thus obsolete. This is definitely incorrect but I tried to follow the lightbulb suggestion anyway (remove unused local variable) and the following error appears: "Cannot perform this action, most likely because of errors in the source code".

Also that is incorrect. There are no errors in the source code. The highlighting was fine a few days ago and today all of a sudden completely off. The application builds fine.

What I already tried to resolve this (all to no avail, unfortunately):

- Removed the DotSettings.user file.

- Removed ReSharper from Visual Studio and reinstalled it.

- Updated ReSharper.

- Updated Visual Studio.

 

I hope you have other suggestions on how to get ReSharper working properly again. It's a great tool and I prefer not to do too much coding without it.

Many thanks in advance!

Hello Frits!

 

Could you please try clearing caches as described in the following help article - https://resharper-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/206546989-ReSharper-stopped-working-for-a-single-specific-solution

Thank you.

Hi Angelina,

thanks for the suggestion. I had figured this out in the meantime (removed the solution's cache folder manually) and it made things work as normal again, thankfully! 

I meant to update this thread, but once I got working again it slipped my mind.

Many thanks for the reply though! Very helpful.

Cheers
