Visual Studio 2019 Toolbox not showing

Hi,

I have installed Syncfusion v17 latest (Winforms) I have got visual studio 2019. But in my toolbox there is no syncfusion tools. I have run assembly manager re-install everything. Delete *.tbd files etc.. And re-run Toolbox Utility but its giving me "You must run Assembly Manager Utility before running Toolbox Utility". I have run assembly manager utility so many times.I have checked \Syncfusion installed Folder\Windows\17.2.0.34\Utilities\ToolBoxInstallers but there is no Vs2019 toolbox extension. There is a file named SyncfusionToolboxInstaller_VS2017.vsix. Maybe i need vs2019 version. What i have to do ?

HI Ibrahim, 
 
Greetings from Syncfusion! 
 
Please try the below steps to resolve the reported issue with the toolbox configuration.    
 
1. Run the SyncfusionToolboxInstaller_VS2017.vsix in admin mode using VSIXInstaller.exe from the following location.   
      
     Syncfusion Toolbox VSIX Location: {Installed Drive}\{Program Files}\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\{PlatformName}\{Version}\Utilities\ToolBoxInstallers\SyncfusionToolboxInstaller_VS2017.vsix 
   
     Example : C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\Windows\17.2.0.34\Utilities\ToolBoxInstallers\SyncfusionToolboxInstaller_VS2017.vsix  
 
 Admin Mode   
1. Open the command prompt window in admin mode.  
   
2. Navigate to Visual Studio 2019 IDE Location mentioned below.   
  
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Preview\Common7\IDE   
   
3. Run the VSIXInstaller.exe with the below commands.   
   
    VSIXInstaller.exe /a /q " {Syncfusion Toolbox VSIX Location} "   
   
     Example : VSIXInstaller.exe /a /q "C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\Windows\17.2.0.34\Utilities\ToolBoxInstallers\SyncfusionToolboxInstaller_VS2017.vsix"

    Note: If you want to configure the other framework in Visual Studio 2019, edit the /framework  value as 4.0 or 4.5 or 4.6. You can also modify the platform as WPF if you want to configure WPF controls and ASP.NET to configure ASP.NET platform controls in Visual Studio toolbox.
