Update VSIX Extension Without Bumping Version


I'm developing a VSIX extension, and I'd like to make some changes and test them in the non-experimental instance without bumping the extension version. When I install it the first time, it allows me to choose the instance to install to, but when I double click it a second time, it doesn't indicate that it can be installed anywhere, presumably because the version number hasn't been updated. Is there any way to force it to install anyway?


Solution

  • Uninstall and re-install in the instance if you do not want to bump the version number
