NOTE - Visial Micro 2.0 is a free and compatible update for existing Visual Studio 2017 / 2019 or 2022 licences. In short, re-activation is not required as a result of installing Visual Micro 2.0

First install of Visual Micro 2.0 will add as much of the Microsoft Linux workload as it needs and no more. Microsoft are improving the installer all the time, if intellisense fails, please use "Tools>Get Tools" to complete installation of the linux workload. Visual Studio 2022 is prefered because the installer is more reliable and faster.

To install, download and then right click Open With > Visual Studio Version Selector.

Download the Visual Micro 2.0 extension for Visual Studio 2022 (.vsix)
Download the Visual Micro 2.0 extension for Visual Studio 2017/2019 (.vsix)

Release Notes;

This update will replace an existing Visual Micro installation. Uninstalling and reinstalling older releases is fully supported. Either version of Visual Micro can be installed.

Older Visual Micro projects will continue to work in the new version, but will not benefit from the new intellisense system. Projects created in the new version will not work in the old version. Existing Visual Micro users will not notice any changes in 2.0 unless the new project type is used.
This update will replace an existing Visual Micro installation. Uninstalling and reinstalling older releases is fully supported. Either version of Visual Micro can be installed.

Visual Micro 2.0 is a compatible update for all current users of Visual Micro. It shares the same license and does not prevent return to older versions of Visual Micro (except for the format of new .vcxproj files created with 2.0). The only difference will come when opening new projects, in this case the Microsoft Visual Studio Linux Workload is used for the new project (.vcxproj), instead ot the standard Microsoft VC++ Workload. This change relates entirely to intellisense, the build process is unaffected. Existing projects will continue to use the VC++ intellisense system. We will release an optional "auto convert" to update the .vcxproj file of existing older projects.

Finalised Release
  • ESP32: Fix to ensure additional Filesystem Upload options are shown (Reported Here)
  • Micro Explorer: Added resiliency and logging to help identify rendering issues (Reported Here)
  • Hardware Debugging: Improvement to ensure no conflicts between Board Package Debug configurations and vMicro Debug configurations (Reported Here)


Visual Micro can be uninstalled or reinstalled using "Extensions>Extension Manager". Installing Visual Micro 2.0 does not prevent roll back to earlier versions.
