Hello,

I am trying to create an extension which will add a custom button to the Visual Studio 2022 Team Explorer window. On clicking the button I want to do some operations in the Version Control.

I had built that application using Visual Studio 2019 by extending the "ITeamExplorerNavigationItem" of the "Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls". But in VS2022 it is not working.

I can see there has been some changes in the way of extension creation in VS 2022. Can you please let me know how can I extend the Team Explorer window of Visual Studio in VS 2022.

    Sure thing! You need to create a mod that will allow specific modifications to the app you will be trying to change. If you need help making a mod, please contact me privately and I will create a document that will go over the basics, mediocre, and expert stuff.

    Can you rephrase that whole entire sentence? Put it in a Event to Action sentence.

    Event to Action:

    "on" EVENT(click, press, etc.) "I want it to(make a): " ACTION(shortcut, open a page, etc.) "."
