VS2019 16.6.0 - Extension stopped working? #70

Closed fudgeboy2000 closed 4 years ago

fudgeboy2000 commented 4 years ago

Installed product versions

Description

After the upgrade to 16.6.0 last week, Add New File no longer works. Can't see any error messages or failures anywhere - it just isn't on the context menu, and Shift-F2 does nothing.

Steps to recreate

Upgrade VS to 16.6.0

Current behavior

Add New File no longer works.

Expected behavior

Add New File should work.

I understand that all sounds lame. I've tried disabling/enabling, uninstalling the extension and re-adding, and deleting the ComponentModelCache folder.

I'm fairly sure I used it in the 16.6 previews. I also just successfully used it in 17.1 preview 1. So my guess is it'll work fine in 16.6 final.

Interestingly, though, my extension gives 3.5.138 as its version. Maybe you got a broken update?

I was using 3.5.138, with the same issue, and tried 3.5.140 from the nightly build to see if it helped. It didn't. But I've installed a fresh VS2019 16.6 on a different laptop and Add New File works fine there, so it must be something on my main dev machine specifically. I don't know how to debug that, but it looks to be specific to me now so I'll close. Many thanks!

So the extension was actually still on the context menu, but the keyboard shortcut had been reassigned to "navigate under caret". Had to re-assign the Shift-F2 keyboard shortcut in the Options -> Keyboard section. Not something I'd changed myself as far as I know, but just in case it helps anyone else...
