How to enable the TwinCAT remote status icon in Visual Studio

I always used to have a TwinCAT remote status icon in the bottom bar of Visual Studio (2017 Community).

However, after a recent update of Visual Studio this icon disappeared. How can I get this icon back?

Solution

  • You can get this icon back by going to Tools > Options > Environment > General and make sure the option "Enable rich client visual experience" is selected.
