Visual Studio 2015 Express and Visual SourceSafe 2005


I tried following this instruction. but I still cannot get sourceSafe to appear in the available plug in selection. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/Bb166193.aspx

I have two computer. Computer A and Computer B. Computer A has Visual Studio 2013 Premium and Visual SourceSafe 2005. and I can see the plug in in the selection like this enter image description here

Computer B has visual studio 2015 Express and Visual SourceSafe 2005. And this is all I see enter image description here

Can you please help me how to add this plug in? Thank you


Solution

  • I install Visual Studio Community 2015 (make sure you use vs_community.exe) and SourceSafe option will be available.

    I was using vs_Desktop.exe previously.

    Make sure to select and download the community edition instead of the visual studio express for desktop
