Opens .sln files as text rather than a solution #17

Maybe I'm missing something, but I have dragged and dropped all of my solution files (.sln) into the BetterStartPage, and when I click on one of them to open a solution, it actually opens the .sln file as if it was a text file rather than opening the solution in the solution explorer as expected.

Just found a comment about this issue on the VS Extension Gallery Q&A section. https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/8da4b080-2ad6-47fd-a1ff-4e7cc185523b

Sounds like this is a bug, but the workaround is to keep the .sln at the end when renaming the links. Just tested the workaround, and it works.

This was fixed with commit 6f96290. I just don't think the Visual Studio Gallery install was rebuilt and published.

Should be fixed in the latest issue. Feel free to reopen the issue when it still happens for you.
