title: Windows Forms designer is permanently broken for a certain form
body: <p>This is a follow-up to <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5521676">All controls on a form are invisible</a>, now that I know a little more about it.</p>
  
  <p>I have a certain form that was created with the Windows Forms designer of Visual Studio 2010. It was working fine until some time this week. Now when I make any change to the form and the designer recreates the <code>.designer.cs</code> file, all binding members are set to "none", and all <code>Controls.Add</code> calls are removed. The controls still are visible in the designer, but then when I run the project the controls are all invisible (due to there being no Controls.Add calls). If I close and reopen the designer, the form is blank.</p>
  
  <p>There are no errors, warnings or messages indicating why the designer is being a jerk, and I really don't want to have to recreate every single control on that form, but it's looking like I might have no choice.</p>
