It’s very simple. You run the extension (*.vsix) like you would run an application and it will automatically install itself to your
Visual Studioinstallation.You can then start
Visual Studioand go toTools => Extension Managerto confirm that theExtensionwas installed successfully.Keep in mind that
Extensionsare only supported on thePremiumversions ofVisual Studioand it’s not possible to use them on theVisual Studio Expresseditions.
