VS2019 Context Menus Truncated - Workarounds?

Post by tletter »

As shown in the following image, VS2019 Context Menus are severely truncated and missing a number of features compared to VS2018 including "Create Smart Proxy File". There no longer appears to be any way to manually create a Smart Proxy File in VS2019. Is there any workaround?

Works for me
Do you have Smart Proxies enabled?

Just to expand on Trevor's reply, in both VS 2018 and 2019, you have to enable SmartProxy in Preferences (either Preferences > Performance tab or Preferences > Smart Proxy Manager > Enable SmartProxy) before 'Create SmartProxy file' becomes selectable in that dropdown menu. That's how it works in my setup...
