Apologies for this, we believe we will have a fix for this problem in our next release. For now, can you please close all instances of the IDE and then open a Windows command prompt, running as Administrator, and run the command:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Professional\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" /setup

this should fix the missing icons. Obviously if you are not using the professional version you will need to use the correct path for your version of VS2022.

Thank you for the update, hopefully this will stay fixed. A few people have reported the problem coming back, sometimes on an IDE update, but running the /setup command again should restore the icons again.

Can you please install our latest release, just released a few days ago, build 2023.1 from here:

http://www.wholetomato.com/downloads

it includes a fix for the missing icons problem.

BluGenes is right, if you are still running an older version of VA that has encountered this problem, you do need to run the "devenv.exe /setup" command as administrator. It will fail if you don't run it as administrator.

The latest release does have the missing VA icons, but the others are missing.

VA_X64.dll file version 10.9.2476.0 built 2023.01.19



Mostly, it happens when VisualStudio is started with the argument "useenv"

Did you see this problem with previous versions of VA? Or is this a new problem with VA 2476?

Are the missing icons on Visual Studio toolbars, or on toolbars from other extensions? You have some icons from Visual Studio toolbars showing.

Can you please try disabling VA in:

IDE Extensions menu -> Manage Extensions

which will require an IDE restart to take effect, and see if this has any effect on this problem? VA should not be having any effect on other icons that are not coming from VA. Disabling VA in the manage extensions dialog like this should completely stop VA from loading, so it is a good test to see if VA is having an effect here.

This issue wasn't in the previous versions. It appeared in VA 2476

The missing icons come only from other extensions.

Disabling and enabling VA in "Manage Extensions" helps.
It worked correctly for quite a long time.
After installing a new extension or starting VS with "/setup", the icons were again damaged.

It had an interesting behavior.
After startup, the icons for VA were missing, after a few seconds, probably when some VA background task finished, the icons for VA appeared, but the others were lost.


But when I deleted "ImageLibrary.cache" then it seems that it works correctly.

We tracked the problem VA was having down to a bug in Visual Studio, but the fix for VA should not have any effects on other extensions.

Can you tell me which extension or extensions are having this problem, so I can see if I can reproduce this problem here? I am assuming these are publicly available extensions, and not in house extensions.

There is a problem with any external extension, from VS Marketplace as well as made in-house.

Here are several public extensions
P4EditVS - Visual Studio Marketplace
Clang Power Tools - Visual Studio Marketplace
ForceStep - Visual Studio Marketplace (rebuild for VS2022)

Sometimes there is no issue with the icons and sometimes are missing.

See attached animated gif, what happens when VS is started without a project and I do nothing.

Apologies for this, we are currently looking into it:

case=149189

You might want to try uninstalling VA and going back to VA 2022.5, 2471.0, which can be downloaded from here:

https://support.wholetomato.com/default.asp?W404

which was before we added our "fix" for the missing icons.
