Getting a list of installed extensions and packages in Visual Studio 2013?

Is there a simple way to get a list of installed extensions and packages in Visual Studio 2013?

I would like to capture what is installed so that I can do a remove and reinstall and get things back to the same as before the reinstall.

Google brought me here so I figured I'd update this for 2019.

I wanted a way to copy my extensions for VS2017 to VS2019. While the above method does indeed give you a list the method outlined here by the legendary Mads Kristensen is the way to go.

TLDR; Download Extension Manager 2017 for VS2017. Download Extension Manager 2019 for VS2019. Export from 2017 and import to 2019.

Extension Manager 2022

You can get a list of installed extensions and packages from the Help - About Microsoft Visual Studio dialog. The Copy Info button copies this list as text to the clipboard.
