Visual Studio 2015 Navigation Bar Disappears

I am having an issue in Visual Studio 2015 (VB.Net) where the Navigation Bar is not showing.

I have set the settings in Tools > Options > Text Editor > All Languages and set the "Navigation Bar" setting to checked.

The bar will show up for a second and then disappear.

I have tried it in Safe Mode and still the same.

I have tried editing the CurrentSettings.vssettings and it shows when you load but again it then disappears.

Any Thoughts?

for me such issue happens in the scenario that in one file the navigation bar disappeared but in other files it is still there. my solution is: 1) find the project that the missing navigation bar file located; 2) unload the project(in solution explorer->right click project name->in popup dialog, select unload project). Logically then the file will be closed and the project will be gray; 3) load the project again(in solution explorer->right click project name->in popup dialog, select load project). Then the navigation bar will appear again in this file. Such solution also help for Intelisense doesn't work for some files.

Try this: uncheck the checkbox in tools\options\text editor\all languages\general\navigation bar and click OK. This is unintuitive, but then--come back to the same checkbox, which should now be Unchecked, check it, and click OK. This has worked for me. Why the navigation bar disappears randomly is a mystery.
