Find out what VS.NET modules are installed

Sometimes, VS.NET gets confused, especially after heavy usage. Simply put, it does not display all the modules installed in the start-up screen. In order to reset them, start the VS.NET command line and type:

devenv /setup

VS.NET will run in silent mode and exit. Next time you start VS.NET, the startup screen will display all the modules that are installed.
