what type of project do you have open? MVC, Winforms, Cordova, or...?

It happens on all testet projects like WPF, VSIX, Xamarin Android App, ...

I think that I know what the problem is: I am using Visual Studio 2015 Community. It could be that the "Tools.DiffFiles" command is not avaiable in the free version.

ygrenier commented 8 years ago

Here same problem on french install. Apparently "Tools.DiffFiles" is not available on my french installation. I find a "Fichier.Comparer" command (can be translated by "File.Compare") in the command window, but when I run it, I got a "not available" message. Tested on VS2013 Pro, VS2015 Pro, CS2015 Community. If I add the command in a Toolbar the commands are always disabled.

Apprently @Bennik2000 use a German version, me a French version, perhaps a localisation problem ?

madskristensen commented 8 years ago

I may have found a fix. Please help by verifying it by installing the latest CI build found here http://vsixgallery.com/extension/ea5c68d6-cdae-4e79-bd46-2a39e95bb256/

Unfortunately on my german install it does not work. But another message is displayed: "Falscher Parameter. (Ausnahme von HRESULT: 0x80070057 (E_INVALIDARG))". It can be translated to "Wrong parameter. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070057 (E_INVALIDARG))"

Same message on my french install "Paramètre incorrect. (Exception de HRESULT : 0x80070057 (E_INVALIDARG))".

Ok, I'll try something else. Thanks for helping

madskristensen commented 8 years ago

Ok, I'm now using the command GUID and Id instead of the command name. Please try version 1.1.8 here http://vsixgallery.com/extension/ea5c68d6-cdae-4e79-bd46-2a39e95bb256/
