	Hi, My PC is a fresh install of Windows 10 with Atmel Studio 6.2 and the latest Visual Micro. Problem is when i create a new project, I can not see any Arduino options like I can on my windows 10 laptop which seems identical... Below is the pop-up screen right after right-clicking the solution and adding another project. Below is the same pop-up screen from my windows 10 laptop... Pretty strange huh? Anyway, your help is greatly appreciated! Cheers

	1) The file>new>arduino project does add to the open solution. 2) The latest visual micro release hopefully fixes an installer issue that failed to show the visual micro templates in the File>New>Project wizard

	You legend! That's good enough for me. VM 1508_14 did not fix the template issue but this is good enough. Cheers

	Great. Well I am pleased to say the new Visual Studio 2015 version of Visual Micro is an extension. The install work really well because it does NOT use the Microsoft .msi system! Visual Micro will be an extension for Atmel Studio 7!! You can install the templates yourself easily enough Copy the files and folder from:- C:\Program Files (x86)\Visual Micro\Visual Micro for Arduino\Atmel Studio\Project Templates To:- C:\Users\[your name]\Documents\Atmel Studio\Templates\ProjectTemplates Then re-start as6
