Extensibility

In Visual Studio 2022 version 17.9, you can now include extensions in your *.vsconfig file right after the list of components. Since *.vsconfig files are easy to pass around and share with others, it’s now easier to share information about which extensions need to be installed. This capability to load extensions thru a vsconfig file was one of our top requested community features.

Some teams like to put their *.vsconfig files in solution directories or repos and have Visual Studio automatically detect and install whatever is missing. This functionality currently works for marketplace extensions, and if you want it to work for other types of extensions, please let us know.

Full text support in Code Search

In the all-in-one Code Search (Ctrl+T or Ctrl+,), you can now search for any word or string of characters across your solution, supplementing file and symbol results from your codebase. You can now search for local variable names, words in comments, parameter names, or any other string of characters across your codebase.

All-In-One Search

For a text-only view, you can filter down to just text results by doing one of the following:

  • Click the "text (x:)" button below the search bar,
  • Prefix your search query with "x:",
  • Use the keyboard shortcut Shift+Alt+F, or
  • Go to the menu option "Edit > Go To > Go To Text".

In the text-only experience, there are also the options to toggle "Match case", "Match whole word", and "Use regular expressions" through the button at the far right of the search bar.

Read more about the full text support in Code Search here.

If you don't get the text filter button in the Code Search window, then you can manually enable it by turning on the preview feature "Tools > Options > Environment > Preview Features > Plain text search in All-In-One Search (requires restart)".

Multi-folder Open Support

Now, you can open multiple folders in Visual Studio! Seamlessly work with a subset of folders or manage workloads spanning across unrelated folders on the same drive. Learn more about opening multiple folders!.
