Visual Studio Extensions and Visual Studio 11 Dev. Preview
I am unable to install lots of extensions to Visual Studio 11 Dev. Preview. It keeps saying This extension is not installable on any currently installed products..
I have only VS 11 Dev. Preview installed on my machine.
- Is this only happening to me?
- Hasn't MS implemented the support for VS 11 to install the extensions made for VS 2010?
- Is MS out of its mind (I don't think so but you never know) and not going to support those?

rename the extension to be a zip file, edit the manifest in the file to target vs11.

VS 2011 Developer Preview is just that - the developer preview. It is not a production release and therefore not complete. I am not surprised that it does not currently support most extensions from 2010.
Whether 2010 extensions will be fully supported in 2011 is anyone's guess, but I suspect most will work.
