JustMock menu does not appear in Visual Studio after install from Telerik Control Panel

[Matt]

I'm not sure what has changed on my computer, but at this point I don't have any means of enabling the JustMock profiler any longer from within Visual Studio.  I've installed some VS updates (currently up to date as far as The Extensions and Updates VS dialog says) since it was last working for me. And I've used the Telerik Control Panel to do a Repair for JustMock and also tried uninstalling and reinstalling JustMock completely, all to no avail.  See attachments below for my current install state.

I'm sure I'm just "doing it wrong", but don't know where I've gotten off the path.

Hello Matt,

Thank you for contacting us and bringing this issue.

Please, follow these steps in order to fix the missing JustMock menu inside Visual Studio:

1. Open Visual Studio, go to TOOLS -> Extensions and Updates....
2. If JustMock is in the list of installed extensions, uninstall it from there.

3. Go to the extensions folder of Visual Studio:

   • default location for Visual Studio 2013: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions or C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions
   • default location for Visual Studio 2012: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions or C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions
   • default location for Visual Studio 2010: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\ExtensionsorC:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions
4. Delete all folders that have Telerik.JustMock.* DLLs in them (the name of the folders should follow pattern like this "4uus3xan.ur4")
5. Run Notepad as an Administrator.
6. Go to File -> Open and navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio <10.0, 11.0 or 12.0>\Common7\IDE\Extensions
7. Change the file types to "All Files".
8. Open extensions.configurationchanged file and save it without changing anything in it(File -> Save). This will refresh the list of extensions that Visual Studio uses.
9. Go to the JustMock install folder (default is: C:\Program Files (x86)\Telerik\JustMock\Libraries).
10. Run Telerik.JustMock.VS.vsix as administrator and proceed with the manual installation of the Telerik JustMock extension.
11. Check if the missing JustMock extension/menu is fixed afterwards.

I hope it helps.

I un-installed and re-installed the latestTelerik JustMock package. I then used a sample from the install and updated the nugets


Finally I also had to copy the telerik-license.txt file to my local home directory as the Visual Studio extension said i was not licensed.

After a restart the extension allowed me to enable the profiler

I also have copied to  C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Telerik b ut not sure if these is actually needed

I enabled the profile from the extension and was able to mock static and sealed classes which helped mocking MVVM Community toolkit
