I've just installed Productivity Power Tools 2013 for my Visual Studio 2013 and then playing with the option of this extension and I get crashed :-(
i.e.
The Solution Explorer window is now empty.
Cannot exit Visual Studio
Going for Tools - Extension and Updates fails too
What can I do to get back to where I was >.<
Find the correct folder under following folders for this extension and delete it
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\Extensions
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\Extensions

I have Visual Studio 2019 16.8.2 and I have installed the Office Development tools from Visual Studio Installer. I then created an Excel Web Add-In project and when I try to run the project, I get this error:
In the output window, there isn't much useful info:
Excel is of course installed, I have the following version:
Could there be some form of Compatibility issue? or maybe something in the Visual Studio Version?
I tried to check online but couldn't find anything related to this.
The problem is that you should not Visual Studio as administrator. When running as Admin it results in the error. Running as not admin works correctly.
My project/solution of VS (VB) 2019 I was able to edit and publish till date. But now after uninstalling Visual Studio 2017, one of the form of my solution do not open and gives me error message:
There is no editor available for XYZ.vb (my Form file name with full
path). Make sure the application for the file type (.vb) is installed.
I am able to open all other forms other then one in the same solution.
What and where can be the problem?
The ADO.NET Model Templates are missing in my version of VS2015. I have tried installing the SQL Server data tools and re-installing the EF Tools as per suggestions found elsewhere but neither have helped. Does anyone have a solution for this issue?
Many thanks
I fixed the same problem in the following way
got to the Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Right click on Visual Studio 2015 -> Modify -> (tick the feature "Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools" ) and Update
give it a try
I was getting the No items found message when attempting to simply add a new class to my project, and managed to fix it using the steps provided by this blog post by Kevin Wilson
Close Visual Studio
Remove (and backup) the following directories from your Visual
Studio installation.
VisualStudioInstallDir\Common7\IDE\ItemTemplatesCache
VisualStudioInstallDir\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplatesCache
Run command prompt as administrator, and navigate to the Visual Studio directory, e.g.
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7IDE
Run the following command to regenerate the item and project template caches
devenv.exe /InstallVSTemplates
Restart Visual Studio, and if everything's worked, your class & project templates should all be working normally again.
In the past I have only used Visual Studio 2010 Professional for C#, but now I need to work on a little bit of Visual Basic. When I go to create a project it only shows C# project templates. I am assuming when I installed Visual Studio 2010, I only installed C#.
How do I now install VB.NET support?
I tried following a MS tutorial: I went to Control Panel and selected Change/Uninstall on Visual Studio, but then it asked me to insert a CD, of which I have none since it was donwloaded.
Nevermind I figured it out. (win7) Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Uninstall/Change on Visual Studio -> then when you hit the Add/Remove features and you get the popup asking about the cd (which is where I assumed i was stuck before) if you hit Download it takes you to the dialog where you choose additional languages to install and it worked.
I apologize for my earlier flippant comment, and offer you

I have been trying to get the MonoTools for Visual Studio from their web site (mono-tools.com). But with no luck. Where to get MonoTools for Visual Studio 2010/2012 plug-in?
Aditya.
You can easily modify the MonoTools installer to work with VS2012. .vsix files are ZIP files. In the root of the zip, you'll see a file named extension.vsixmanifest, which lists the versions of Visual Studio that are supported by the extension.
Basically,
Download the MonoTools package
Rename it to have a .zip extension
Right-click and select "open" - you don't want to extract the file, just open the archive using the built-in Windows mechanism
Copy extension.vsixmanifest anywhere - say, to your desktop.
Open it up in a text editor (I love Notepad++, EMACS is also pretty awesome under OSX.)
Change the SupportedProducts key to the following:
<SupportedProducts>
<VisualStudio Version="10.0">
<Edition>VSTS</Edition>
<Edition>VSTD</Edition>
<Edition>Pro</Edition>
</VisualStudio>
<VisualStudio Version="11.0">
<Edition>VSTS</Edition>
<Edition>VSTD</Edition>
<Edition>Pro</Edition>
</VisualStudio>
</SupportedProducts>
Copy the modified file back into the archive.
Rename it from .zip to .vsix
Run it. The Visual Studio Version Selector should appear and let you pick VS2012.
If the Mono menu item doesn't appear after restarting VS, you may need to run
devenv /setup
from a VS command prompt (or, from c:\program files (x86)\microsoft visual studio 11\common7\ide).
This works for just about any VS2010 extension.
That was a former product from Novell, and it is no longer offered or developed.
Xamarin doesn't offer it either.
can get it from here: http://mono-tools.com/
free if you do their survey
but i don't see a vs2012 version
It costs at minimum $999.00 - https://store.xamarin.com/ and is included as part of Mono for Android. Here's a screenshot of what it looks like after it's installed.
There is also a training course on this from PluralSight -- http://www.pluralsight-training.net/microsoft/Courses/TableOfContents/android-intro
