can't install this on VS Pro 2017 v.15.9.24 #4

Hi, this single extension increases my productivity by 1000 and I really hate to live without it.

However, we upgraded VS at my company today, to the version mentioned above. I cannot change it, it's company policy.

And I can't install the extension any more, apparently because of a dependency to MPF 16.0. However, if what I found out is correct, MPF 16.0 comes with VS 2019, while the marketplace description of this extension says 2017 is supported. And I found no way to install MPF 16.0.

The extension did previously work on an older version of VS Pro 2017. I installed approx. 6 months ago.

Hi @aczutro,

I am glad that you like the extension. It was super hard for me to keep the support for all the VS versions, so I think I compiled the latest version with the newest VS only. The easiest for you is to install the older version. There were no other changes added. You can download it from here. Double clicking the downloaded vsix should do the job.

Let me know if that helped :)
