Note: For handling IncrediBuild Extension/Add-in issues in Visual Studio, see also the information in the Visual Studio Add-in section of the Agent Settings dialog box.

Displaying IncrediBuild Menu in the Menu Bar of Visual Studio IDE

In most Visual Studio versions, after you install IncrediBuild Extension, IncrediBuild menu is added to the menu bar of Visual Studio IDE. However, in Visual Studio 2019, IncrediBuild menu appears as a sub-menu under the Extensions menu, and there may be other cases where IncrediBuild menu was removed from the menu bar. In such cases, you can change the location of IncrediBuild main menu, and display it in Visual Studio menu bar.

> To display IncrediBuild Menu in the menu bar of Visual Studio IDE:

1. On Visual Studio IDE, open the Tools menu > Customize option.
2. On the Customize dialog box – Extensions Menu tab, select the IncrediBuild check box to display IncrediBuild menu in the IDE menu bar:
