Help! Lost all items in MenuStrip and ToolStrip...

[moss]

A weird kind of bug happened to me in Visual Studio 2008, similar to
this:
http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=88548

I lost all items in MenuStrip and ToolStrip, they are now totally
blank. I deleted a couple of .png files from the Resources folder and
then the Designer went crazy. The thing is, in Form1.cs and
Form1.Designer.cs all of code is still there, I just don't see the
items in the Designer and when I run the program. It would be a lot of
work to add them again, so is there any way I can get the items back?

Have to tried to manually edit the resources file to remove all references
to the .PNG file?

What about starting a new project and adding the form as an existing item?

I tried both, but none worked. It's a good thing I had an older
version of the project backed up, so I didn't have to do everything
from scratch.
