Question

I’ve implemented the suggestions in Scott Hanselman’s blog post Simplify your Visual Studio 2010 Toolbar and Free Your Mind. Very cool.

Where can I find/execute the command “Close All But Pinned” that is part of Visual Studio Productivity Power Tools.

Answer 1

It is a two step process:

Create a Macro with the following

Public Module myToolbar
    Sub CloseAllButPinned()
        DTE.ExecuteCommand("Window.CloseAllButPinned")
    End Sub
End Module

Right click on your Toolbar, choose Customize, Add Command, Category Macro, choose MyMacros.myToolbar,CloseAllButPinned

Then click ModifySelection and give it an easy to remember name
