Microsoft decided to increase the minor version in 15.6, what they didn't do before and causes this problem. I fixed this by removing the hard max version limit from Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.CoreEditor reference in extension.vsixmanifest
<Prerequisite Id="Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.CoreEditor" Version="[11.0,]" DisplayName="Visual Studio core editor" />
and be specifying only the min version in catalog.json and manifest.json
"Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.CoreEditor":"11.0"
I don't know if all this is required, I just checked another extension which works under 15.6. After that it installs and works fine.
@0x084E would you mind submitting a PR?
Done in #15 I didn't remove the version limit completely but changed it from 15.0 inclusive to 16.0 exclusive so 15.6 still matches the limit but 16.0 won't.
This is still an issue in VS 2017 Professional
Having the same issue in 2017 Enterprise
I'll get that merged and update the extension. Sorry for the delay folks.
I published a new version of the extension with the changes @0x084E made to the vsixmanifest file. Please open another issue if you still have problems.
getting a message stating "The extension cannot be installed to this product due to prerequisites that cannot be resolved"
Suggestions?
