ReSharper Help: Applicability and Storage of Templates

Depending on the scope of applicability and storage, templates are categorized into the following groups:

• User Templates: These templates are intended for personal use and are available for the current user across all solutions on the user machine. Personal user templates are stored in the user settings file (for ReSharper 4.0 installed over Visual Studio 2008 in the Windows environment, that would be <User home>/Application Data/JetBrains/ReSharper/v4.0/vs9.0/UserSettings.xml).
• Shared Solution Templates: These templates are intended for both personal and team use for a certain solution. For the current user, these templates are available in a specific solution only. If put under version control, they become available to the entire team that works on this specific solution. The shared solution templates are stored in the <SolutionName>.resharper file.
• Personal Solution Templates: These templates are intended for personal use within a certain solution, and are stored in the <SolutionName>.resharper.user file.
• Predefined templates of all types are delivered with ReSharper. These templates cannot be deleted.
