I have followed this tutorial from Microsoft:
I am trying to create a visual studio extension but I cannot make it appear, I have made what the tutorial said, like adding my extension to the menu group:
<Groups>
<Group guid="guidTestCommandPackageCmdSet" id="MyMenuGroup" priority="0x0600">
<Parent guid="guidTestCommandPackageCmdSet" id="IDM_VS_MENU_TOOLS"/>
</Group>
</Groups>
My problem is that I cannot find the extension anywhere. Actually, I cannot find the "Extensions" menu anywhere. Under the "Tools" menu there is a submenu called "Extensions and updates" but that is not it. Where is the "Extensions" Menu in visual studio 2017?
Here is my right click menu when I right click on a project:
This is the second tutorial I am trying from Microsoft but when they tell you to look for the Extension they say:
- Select Manage Extensions (on the Extensions menu)
Which does not exist.
Tools menu (please notice the "Extensions and updates" menu, which is not what I am looking for and it does not have the same functionality as stated in the Microsoft tutorial):

You should be able to get it back by right-clicking on the menu bar and selecting customize at the bottom. next select the commands tab and change the menu bar to tools.
