VS2022: Device Explorer tool window icons missing after VS extension update

[networkfusion]

Tool

Visual Studio extension

Description

Currently the icons sometimes "disappear" when the VS2022 nanoFw extension is updated.
This is a potential solution is outlined in "https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58311920/visual-studio-vsix-extension-not-showing-in-tools-menu" (although there are possibily other fixes).
A solution like this "should" be tried before escalation to the VS team, as although there is a workaround (via: devenv /updateConfiguration) it is annoying.

Hi,

Not that this helps - but I'm seeing the same thing. All NF buttons in solution explorer are now blank.

This is how you can fix it, run: devenv /updateConfiguration from the developer command prompt. Close all the Visual Studio instances before.

Indeed, deployment feature also restored by running devenv /updateConfiguration
