Specify Stored and Synchronized Settings

Visual Studio stores and synchronizes all your development settings (and modifications to those settings) by default. This includes the theme, fonts and colors, keyboard shortcuts, start-up settings, and text editor options. You can use the options dialog (Tools, Options) to find these many settings and change them (discussed later in this chapter). You can also use this dialog to enable (or disable) synchronized settings between machines. Figure 2.4 shows the Synchronization Settings option.

FIGURE 2.4 Use the Synchronized Settings option under Environment to specify if you wish to synch settings between machines.
