Installation from within Visual Studio 2017 and 2019

Visual Studio 2017 and 2019 enable you to install IncrediBuild from within Visual Studio. 

The IncrediBuild Extension includes:

• Free for life on your local workstation (up to 16 cores).
• Build visualization.
• Predicted execution (some compilation acceleration, higher compilation concurrency, better utilization of cores).
• 30 days for distributing your tasks to up to additional 4 IncrediBuild Agents to get up to x30 acceleration boost to your compilations.

Notes: for using additional IncrediBuild Agents to boost your compilation time:

• These Agents need to be installed on other machines and need to be connected to your Coordinator.
• You are the only one required to register for the license.
• You can install IncrediBuild on these machines as part of the Visual Studio 2017 and 2019 installation. Otherwise, you can use the IncrediBuild installation file from your IncrediBuild install directory: "C:\Program Files (x86)\IncrediBuild\install.exe"

When installing Visual Studio components, all you need to do is check the "IncrediBuild - Build Acceleration" check box and continue the installation as you normally would.

1) After installing the IncrediBuild Extension, make sure you have a solution loaded, and then click rebuild from within the IncrediBuild menu which is now displayed within Visual Studio. This will start the installation wizard.

Note: You have the option to Activate IncrediBuild locally or to connect to another machine. Use the "Connect to another machine" installation If you have a Coordinator already installed. Otherwise, use the "Activate IncrediBuild locally."
