Install log

Not listed in "Installed" or "Update" extensions. Listed in Browse with "INSTALL" button. Clicking INSTALL gives a notice that the extension will be installed upon close. After closing VS, the installer comes up, spins for a few seconds, then says the package is already installed.

Output in VS: Toolkit Version: 1.56.0.0 Visual Studio: VS Community 2022, Version: 17.11.1

Some Toolkit components could not be initialized. Some functionality may not work during this IDE session. If this issue persists, please see guidance on https://github.com/aws/aws-toolkit-visual-studio/issues/452

Hi @SDMol , thanks for reaching out.

Here are some steps for you to perform:

• Close all instances of Visual Studio
• Navigate to %localappdata%\Microsoft\VisualStudio
• Locate the folder corresponding with your Visual Studio 2022 installation. It will start with "17.0_". Go into this folder
• Make a backup copy of privateregistry.bin elsewhere, then delete this file.
• Navigate to the Extensions subfolder
• Make a backup copy of ExtensionMetadata.mpack elsewhere, then delete this file.
• Launch Visual Studio 2022. It will rebuild these cache files.

After this, the extension should be listed as installed, and the AWS Extension should no longer report "Some Toolkit components could not be initialized. Some functionality may not work during this IDE session."

Please let us know whether or not you're back in a functional state after this.
