Thank you for the update. You should not have to uninstall and reinstall the IDE.
In case anyone else ends up here, it is possible there was a problem inside your default IDE profile, I have seen this come up a couple of times lately. This can be tested by creating a test profile, using the command:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Professional\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" /RootSuffix VATest
or
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Professional\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" /RootSuffix VATest
and then installing VA into the test profile, to see if this fixes the problem. If it does, the default profiles settings can be reset, bypassing the need to uninstall and reinstall the IDE. |

That's strange, and no, it should not be related at all.
First, can you please look in the dialog:
IDE Extensions menu -> Manage Extensions
and make sure that Visual Assist is listed as installed and enabled. Obviously if it is shown as installed but disabled please Enable VA, this will require an IDE restart to take effect.
Next, if that didn't help, can you please check the setting:
IDE tools menu -> Options -> Environment -> Extensions and Updates -> Load per user extensions when running as administrator
and if this is turned Off please try turning it On and restarting the IDE, and see if this helps.
"Load per user extensions when running as administrator" did not fix the issue for me, but uninstalling visual studio and installing visual studio 2019 v16.11.13 did. Thanks
@sergyu91ma Fwiw, my issues began when I installed vs2022 and used a trial version of vax. When uninstalled vs2022 and the trial version expired for vax in vs2019, I was unable to get the extension to work on my old version again. Reinstalling vs2019 and running the vax installer in "Windows 7 compatibility mode" fixed the issue.

If you enable "Compatibility mode" and set it to run in compatibility mode for Windows 7 the installer should load and run without any problems.
Obviously if this does not work then please let me know and I can provide you with IDE specific installers that don't have this problem, but I would need to know which version or versions of Visual Studio you need to install VA for.
Thanks, that resolved the issue with the installer, but the extension never loads with in visual studio. It's installed, but there none of the functionality is available. Is this related to the same issue? I'm on Visual Studio 2019 16.11.11. |

Hi, I'm getting this error with the last available version for my license:
Faulting application name: VA_X_Setup2406_0.exe, version: 10.9.2406.0, time stamp: 0x60831558
Faulting module name: VA_X_Setup2406_0.exe, version: 10.9.2406.0, time stamp: 0x60831558
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Could I have the vsix installer or is there another workaround? |

Can you post the VSIX file location for the rest of us mortals? It appears that I have the same problem as far as an Access Denied.
Thank you |

Thank you. I was able to install using the VSIX files. |

There is a problem caused by the latest VS2022 preview, VS2022 Preview 2, which is causing our exe installer to crash. So far the problem only appears if you have this preview installed. We are looking into this:
case=147623
Even with the preview installed the individual VSIX installers still work. I have sent you an email with the links for the individual installers. |
