VS 2022 - not adding to Extensions or right-click menus #999

Open Andy-Corrigan-Liberis opened 1 year ago

Andy-Corrigan-Liberis commented 1 year ago

Environment

Description

Since the latest Visual Studio update, it seems that CodeMaid (and other extensions) are unable to add to the in-built VS menus. I've raised an issue with Microsoft as other extensions are affected (it's just that yours relies solely on adding to VS menus, and is therefore unusable); I'm pretty sure the issue is with VS (or, at the very least, my install) - but they seem convinced it's not. For reference, the issue (which has screenshots) is here: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Manage-Extensions-not-installing-extensi/10359776

Steps to recreate

  1. Install extension
  2. Re-open VS (any project/repo)
  3. Try to access the extension

Current behavior

Extension tools not visible

Expected behavior

Extension tools should be accessible

Update: Microsoft have decided they don't have the capacity to look into this.

Thanks for reporting the issue. I have not been able to reproduce it. There can be a delay in menus populating as extensions are asynchronously loaded and delayed until a solution is opened. However if you have a solution open and the Visual Studio status bar appears to be finished loading everything I wouldn't expect the menu to not be populated.

Yeah, I suspected it was something to do with my laptop/VS install - even getting an error just doing Ctrl+C 😆

Hi, I have same issue. After VS2022 update to 17.7.1... all context menu for Codemaid disappeared. I reinstalled VS2022 and extensions and there are not visible. It also seems other extensions also disappeared, so it's not a Codemaid problem. Any idea? Thanks!

Same problem here!

I am running Blend for visual studio and installed e.g. the php extension DevSense. It shows up as installed extension but it is not accessible / visible in the menu's

In fact the situation is more complex:

Desperately, I reinstalled Blend via the installer menu. That works however ...... it does not change any thing in the behavoir.

I plan to test via an other user account, however .... terrible .... !! Costing hours .... and still not working
