Install Syncfusion

[Luis Ormeño]

Hi, 

I installed the community version, when I finished I entered the visual studio 2017 and I do not see the controls in the toolbox; that I have to do so that they appear, another thing that I have noticed is that in new projects does not appear for wpf of Syncfusion, this of mvc, windows forms.

(also run syncfusion panel toolboxinstaller, reboot my pc but also do not appear in the toolbox)

I appreciate the help.

Currently we are providing the Syncfusion Reference Manager Visual Studio add-in support to utilize the Syncfusion WPF assemblies(based on controls) in existing WPF application. You can utilize the Syncfusion Reference Manager Visual Studio extension in your project by follow the steps given in the below link.

I have absolutely the same situation. After the installation was done I don't see any Syncfusion control in my toolbox. Moreover, third party components previously installed  on my computer were totally disappear from toolbox. I read all articles listed here, tried to do all recommended steps but  have no result. Toolbox still contains only native standard components. Surprisingly, after uninstallation the Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition all my previously installed components appear in the toolbox!

This is very weird, I think. 

My configuration : win 10, VS2017 15.4.1, Essential Studio Enterprise Edition version v15.3.0.26

 Thanks.

 Hi Dmitry,

We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Please find the following responses for your queries.

Q1) Regarding Toolbox configuration.

A1) We are able to reproduce the reported issue only in the latest update of Visual Studio 2017 (15.4). Please follow the below steps to resolve the reported issue.

1. Open the Visual Studio 2017 and go to Tools->Extensions and Updates.

2. Uninstall the Syncfusion ToolBox Installer extension and close the Visual Studio.

 

3. Download and extract the Syncfusion.zip from the below link.

http://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/directtrac/general/ze/Syncfusion-484181507  

4. Take a backup of ToolBoxInstallers folder from the below location.

Location:
{ProgramFilesFolder}\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\{version}\Utilities

Example:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\15.3.0.26\Utilities

5. Copy and replace the ToolBoxInstallers folder from the extracted zip file to the above location.

6. Follow the steps suggested in the following documentation link and configure the Syncfusion controls in Visual Studio toolbox.

https://help.syncfusion.com/common/essential-studio/utilities#toolbox-configuration  

7. Open the Visual Studio 2017 , disable Syncfusion ToolBox Installer extension and close the Visual Studio.

8. Now, enable the Syncfusion ToolBox Installer extension and restart the machine.

9. Syncfusion controls will be configured in Visual Studio 2017 toolbox.

We have fixed this issue and the fix will be included in our upcoming 2014 Volume 4 release.

Q2) Surprisingly, after uninstallation the Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition all my previously installed components appear in the toolbox!

A2) Installing the Syncfusion Essential Studio won’t remove the other third party controls from toolbox. Installing Syncfusion Essential Studio just configures the Syncfusion controls in Visual Studio toolbox.
