Not sure i understand — can you elaborate?

If I click “Rename” item, there’s no response, no dialog, nothing.
If I click “Remove unused usings” item, the “Rename” dialog prompts which is expected by clicking “Rename”.

Can you reproduce it?

Hello. I can’t reproduce this issue. Could you send your project, please?

I think it’s not project-related. I can reproduce it in VS2015 RTM in all my projects including very simple test ones, but I’ve not tried it in VS2012 yet.
I’m reconfiguring my laptop for Win10 RTM these days, and I will provide more test info after I fully reinstall everything.

I’ve reinstalled the Win10 RTM + VS 2015 Community + Elements 8.2.88.1809, and this bug can still be reproduced.

Here’s a simple WPF project:
WPFApplication1.zip (215.2 KB)

If I try to use Mouse-Right-Click -> ContextMenu -> Refactor -> Rename to rename the Window1 class, nothing will happen, the rename dialog won’t display.

If I use Mouse-Right-Click -> ContextMenu -> Refactor -> Remove unused usings, the rename dialog will display, it’s obviously a low-level bug.
