Opening Explorer Data Provider in Visual Studio 2022 #328

Open arieroos opened 10 months ago

arieroos commented 10 months ago

Hi

I am trying to open the ExplorerDataProvider project in Visual Studio 2022. When I open the .sln file in VS 2022, I get a pop-up asking me if I want to auto-upgrade the project, which I then do. The project the launches with incompatible in parenthese next to the project name, and "The application is not installed" below it. I then try to reload the project, which shows me the One-Way upgrade dialog again. Then I let the de continue, but after a few second I get a error message saying "The operation could not be completed" without any other information. The project then has "load failed" in parenthesis, with "The project requires user input. Reload the project for more information." below it. Reloading the project just repeats the process without any more information becoming available.

Is there anything else I need to do to get the project to load in VS 2022? Or should I rather try to load the project in an older version of VS?
