Why is Visual C++ lacking refactor functionality?

Don't feel hard-done-by, it isn't available in VB.Net either :)

C++ is a HARD language to parse compared with C# (VB too unless you've "Option Explicit" and "Option Strict" switched on, it's difficult to tell exactly what any line of code is doing out of a MUCH larger context).

At a guess it could have something to do with the "difficulty" of providing it.

P.S. I marked my answer as community wiki because I know it's not providing any useful information.
