Visual assist x can not be used on visual studio - visual-studio-2022

I have installed Tomato Assistant on VS2022, but I can't see it in the view window. Even if I uninstall and reinstall it, it still can't return to normal. May I ask how to solve this problem?

Upgrade VS2022 preview to release version

I have Visual Studio 2022 Preview installed and would like to replace it with the release version that went live yesterday.
When I started VS and checked for updates, it let me upgrade from the previous release candidate to Preview 1.0, but not the actual release version.
Is it possible at all to replace the preview with a release version, or do I have to install them side by side (and delete the preview)?
This is the version I have now:
Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2022 (64-bit) - Preview
Version 17.1.0 Preview 1.0
You don't have to reinstall anything. Just switch the update channel in Visual Studio Installer (More -> Update settings):
You have to reinstall. Preview is basically an Insider build. It will continue to update as pre-release even after 2022 releases.
No need to reinstall or to uninstall. Just download the installer of the channel you want and start it. Once the installer finished updating the installer check again the solution from #antarct and it should show you the option to change.
I was able to switch the Update channel, but the context menu still says "Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 Preview" and the application still lives in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Preview".
I can't live with that rubbish. These may be minor, but in what other areas was the upgrade done so poorly?
I'll be uninstalling and reinstalling as soon as I can find the time to waste on something I shouldn't need to do.
You don't need to reinstall. From my experience, you just need to run the installer NOT from inside visual studio, but from the start menu.
I had switched to preview from release channel for my installation. When I first saw an update notification in visual studio, I opened the installer via the notification and only preview channel was there in the channel list. Then I decided to try the installer from the start menu before hopelessly re-installing as suggested here, the usual full channel list appeared. Then I went back to visual studio and opened the installer from there again, and the channel list was refreshed in there, too. It seems like a metadata refresh problem. Or, maybe the channel data was updated while I was tinkering with it, IDK.

Uninstall Atomineer

Looks like I am being held hostage by the Atomineer Pro Documentation add-in for Visual Studio! The trail period is over, I have no use for it! But now everytime I do something in Visual Studio I get an error message and get sent to their web site!
I have looked all over to find out how to uninstall it and have not found away to uninstall it!
WARNING TO EVERYONE - This Atomineer Pro is not easy to uninstall!! Just from the problems of uninstalling it, I would highly recomend no one ever installs it!
I ran into this too running on Windows 10 and VS 2013. Ended up installing and running IObit Uninstaller, which clean up the registry, but Atomineer was still loading in Visual Studio. My second pass was to search my C: drive for "Atomineer" which got several hits including some in a VS AddIns folder (I think). I just deleted everything and that did the trick.
Visual Studio 2015 onwards (Standard VS Extension)
In Visual Studio, go to Tools > Extensions and Updates, select Atomineer from the list, and click the Uninstall button.
Visual Studio 2005-2013 (Standard VS Add-in)
Use Control Panel > Programs and Features to uninstall it just like any other app, or
Run the Atomineer installer and select "uninstall", or
In the unlikely case that neither of the above work, you can manually search your drive and delete any "AtomineerUtils.Addin" files you find.
In any case if you have any problems, email Atomineer support and we'll be happy to help.

System.NullReferenceException occurs in xaml designer

I've created a C++ UWP Windows 10 app using Visual Studio 2015. However, I'm not able to visualize any xaml in the designer because I'm always getting a System.NullReferenceException error. How can I fix this?
That's very odd but I solved following these steps:
Close any instance of Visual Studio
Open Visual studio and create a new C# UWP empty project (name it as you like, do not matter)
Run the "useless" created project then close it as Visual Studio
Open again your previous C++ UWP project
In my case everything started working!
Switching solution platform to x86 worked for me.
I'm experiencing exactly the same problem on my primary development machine but not on another. The reason is... I think... When I installed Visual Studio 2015 on the 2nd machine, the first time I created a Universal Solution (C#) I was shown a dialog asking me to OK "elevated permissions" (custom permissions) for the VS2015 installation folder. I OK'd it and Designer works on that machine in both Blend2015 and VS2015 (community edition)
On the other machine I was never shown the dialog asking me to confirm elevated permissions and Designer does NOT work on that machine (VS2015 Enterprise). This machine also has VS2013 update 5) on it.
I am thinking that I might have to completely wipe off VS2015 and try to clean the registry of all VS2105 references AND remove the VS2015 installation directories on C:\ AND when I reinstall, create a installation directory with a different name (if I can). What a PAIN though... I'm waiting to see if MS delivers a simple solution since I'm quite positive that this whole issue boils down to a bug (feature... grrr) having to do with custom permissions that can't be changed (or added) after installation.
Would be nice is MS would confirm this...
(please note, none of this involved c++... it was all C#)

this is the dialog I was shown on the machine where Designer works]1
Installing the Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows 10 solved the issue for me. It may ask to unistall the previous version of Windows 10 RTM SDK
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/windows-10-sdk
This is fixed in Update 1 of Visual Studio 2015

No javascript project enlisted in visual studio 2012 ultimate

I have installed visual studio ultimate 2012 for windows 8 store apps but it doesnt show JavaScript in the new project.
The setup is good, i have installed it before using the same setup but i dont know what is the problem now..
I have also tried Visual studio Express, but got the same issue.. And one more thing BLEND is also not working in both the cases.
Are you looking in the right place? They can be 'hidden' in "Other Languages"
Search in the upper right hand corner of "New Project" for javascript to be sure.
Make sure you are up to date as well on the following updates as good measure

After uninstalling the current VS and then deleting all registries and finally installing Vs 2012 ultimate, fixed the issue.

Extremely bad situation with VB 2010 express

I have been having errors with intellisense on vb 2010 express. I tried editing code and intellisense crashed it. I tried disabling intellisense, and that crashed it too. It has gotten worse, and is now at the point where it crashes my computer when I open vb. I've tried repairing it, and it said it couldn't install Microsoft Error Reporting. I tried to uninstall it, and it said there was a problem with a .dll and told me to see if I could access it. The dll exists, and I was able to easily find it. I've tried restarting the computer and uninstalling it, and that did nothing. Please help me, this is extremely aggravating.
The best bet if to uninstall and reinstall Visual Studio. Try uninstalling after a fresh system boot. If that doesn't work, try booting in Safe Mode and uninstalling. If that doesn't work, try re-installing with the "repair" option. If that doesn't work, as a last resort you might be able to reinstall a second copy of Visual Studio on the computer and use it.
I would reinstall the entire computer.
Reinstall windows and go from there.
No repair, no fix. Clean install.
