I'm using VSIX Manifest Designer under VS2013. I've added Microsoft.VisualStudio.Pro product identifier and [10.0,13.0) version range to install targets. Despite that fact, I still don't see my VS2010 Professional as an available installation target:
The source.extension.vsixmanifest file content is shown below:

What should be changed to enable installation of this extension to VS2010, 2012 and 2013?
What you have is the version 2 VSIX manifest, which is not compatible with Visual Studio 2010. Later Visual Studio versions respect version 1 of the manifest, so in order to support all 3 Visual Studio versions with a single manifest, you'll have to convert it to v1.0 manually (and make sure NOT to edit it with VS2012+, otherwise it will be converted back to v2.0).
Something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Vsix xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" Version="1.0.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/vsx-schema/2010">

You don't have to specify all product editions (called SKUs), Pro
is enough, if, say, Ultimate
is installed, it will be displayed instead.
