  • 0

I would like to export some macros that I have defined and be able to import them into another clean install of Visual Studio with the same module/naming structure that I have defined.

I have some menu command customizations that execute my macros – so to work in another install of Visual Studio, it needs the same macros available.

I would like to avoid a manual step of having to create the macro manually and copy/paste my macro code.

Is this possible? It doesn’t seem like ‘macros’ is an available option to import/export through menu Tools -> Import and Export Settings.

    Tools->Macros->Macros IDE… (or Alt+F11)

    Export: Expand your macros until you find the module you want to export, right-click it, choose Export ModuleName…, select a file, and Save.

    Import: Select “MyMacros” or any other, right-click it, and choose Add->Add Existing Item… Select the file you just created, and Add.
