[SOLVED] New Arduino Project menu is missing

I've just installed Visual Micro and I'm missing the File \ New \ Arduino Project menu item from Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate. 

There is an Arduino submenu in Tools and I can also find the Visual Micro settings in the Options dialog.

What could be wrong?

Sorry for the delay. 

These menu items that are missing are ones that visual studio has to hide or show based on what is currently in the ide. this type of command has to be created the first time visual micro starts, this is a requirement of vs.

What has happened is that for some reason visual studio did not tell visual micro when the first time was. this happens to a few users.

Solution

To fix the problem you can run visual studio passing the follwoing "resetaddin" switch. The easiest way to do this is to edit the short cut you use to run Visual Studio, add the following text, run visual studio once, close it and remove the text from the short cut.

Code
Select All
[path to devenv.exe] /resetaddin Visual.Micro.Visual.Studio.Arduino.Helper
 


Atmel Studio users do the same but you will see the short cut has a different exe name

Code
Select All
[path to atmelstudio.exe] /resetaddin Visual.Micro.Visual.Studio.Arduino.Helper
