Trying to open the "Window title setup" dialog causes `Object reference not set to an instance of an object` exception
Reported by OmegaMan on the VS gallery page of the plugin.
I loaded the app for the first time VS2015. Went to settings and selected "Windows Title Setup" the got an
Object reference not set to an instance of an object
error message.Again, it is a fresh install, nothing added yet. Setting
Debug
to true nor settingExtension Activation
toAlwaysInactive
does not change the outcome.
As a work around I disabled and re-enabled the extension and restarted VS.
I also got a System.NullReferenceException today under Win10 (Version 1607 with VS2015 Update3) when I tried to start the VS2015. I had to delete the extension from the Extension folder in Appdata\local otherwise VS never starts:
