VS2010 Designer is breaking resx files

If anyone have any clue at all, it would be welcome. I got the same problem last year, and we end up ghosting my computer. 9 month later, I got the problem again ...

Whenever I open a project, if I open a form in my designer, the resx files get automaticly checked-out and modified as I open it.

auto check out

( we have an auto-check out policy at work that force you to check out a file WHEN YOU MODIFY IT, to avoid 2 programmer working on the same stuff. its not support to check out when I'm just "reading" a file. I just compared with other poeple, and it works correctly for everyone but me.)

Broken ResX file

The above image is what I saw when I debug the program, I didnt checked-in anything. I just did a getlatest, and debugged.

Whenever I open a form, The width property of the form gets overwritted down to 770 pixel instead of the regular 950. the image data used on our button gets resize smaller too by ±10 pixel width and height.

Another exemple : this is what I saw when I compared my last resx file checked in from last night. I didnt modified the design or moved anything in the designer at all, it just happened to be open while I was working.

remove the .suo file?

while the solution is closed remove the .suo file and then open the solution to recreate it. it may be restoring the screen sizes from when you last opened the file.
