Open jcansdale opened 7 years ago

This seems to happen often, but not always.

  1. Install GitHub.VisualStudio.vsix.
  2. Uninstall using Tools / Extensions and Updates.
  3. Close Visual Studio and allow extension to uninstall (no warnings/errors).
  4. Open Visual Studio.
  5. Extension is still visible on Tools / Extensions and Updates.
  6. Try uninstalling again.
  7. Close Visual Studio and this time uninstall fails with: image

This has made testing the extension in VS 2017 RC4, super painful. 😢

The way I've been unscrambling this is as follows:

  1. Open explorer on: \Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Enterprise\Common7\IDE\Extensions
  2. Search for GitHub.
  3. Delete the folder that contains the GitHub extension/assemblies.
  4. Make the Extensions\extensions.configurationchanged file editable by the current user.
  5. Modify and save the extensions.configurationchanged file.
  6. Open VS 2017 and the extension is now gone.

A bit of a faff. 😉

jcansdale commented 7 years ago

It looks like this issue is very much related to the extension being installed for all users:

  <Installation AllUsers="true">
    <InstallationTarget Id="Microsoft.VisualStudio.Community" Version="[14.0,15.0]" />
  </Installation>

If I change to AllUsers="false", the VSIX will happily install itself, even when it's broken for all users. It seems if we want to test a standalone VSIX (not installed vis Extensions and Updates), we will need to set AllUsers="false".
