SpecRun not integrating tests in Visual Studio 2012 - specrun

With SpecRun 1.2 there looks to be support to integrate tests directly is VS test explorer. The only documentation I can find is this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBs2Lwqt5kI - you can see after installing the specRun nuget package, his tests automatically appear in the Test Explorer. For me, that doesn't happen... and I would like it to. Any ideas?
Thanks!

After applying "Update 4" to visual studio 2012, it started working fine.

Visual Studio 2019 say dtproj SSIS project is unsupported

I'm trying to open my dtproj SSIS project in Visual Studio 2019 and it says its unsupported and incompatible. What am I missing? I installed VS with SSDT so it should work. I compared the about-info of both and found the VS that didn't work lacked the following. Is SSIS 15 a separate install? If so, where do I get it?
Snapshot Debugging Extension 1.0
Snapshot Debugging Visual Studio Extension Detailed Info
SQL Server Integration Services 15.0.2000.180
Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Designer
Version 15.0.2000.180
Microsoft Visual Studio Tools for Applications 2019 00435-60000-00000-AA131
Microsoft Visual Studio Tools for Applications 2019
#larnu has part of the answer, that is, install the SSIS extension. After doing that it still won't work (or didn't in my case). The project still said 'unsupported' and I right clicked it in solution explorer and clicked 'reload project' and after that the project loaded correctly.

.vdproj is incomatible in VS 2019 - Community Edition - and reload project give load error

I'm unable to run a .vdproj in Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition. I tried the below link which hasn't worked either
Visual Studio - vdproj is incompatible
The project shows incompatible and after installing the Installer Project as Extension given in the above link , the project load is failing. Unable to proceed. Please help
This is redundant question.
Please follow this link for the answer:
Visual Studio - vdproj is incompatible
Or follow these Steps which is also taken from that link:
Go to Extensions > Manage Extension
Select Online > Visual Studio Marketplace
Search for Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Projects
Download the package
Close the Visual Studio to start the installation.
Follow the instructions to install the extension.
Once installation is completed. Launch again the Visual Studio.
In the Solution Explorer, look for the .vdproj project
Right click .vdproj project, click Reload
If all of the mentioned remedies not help, there is another possibility, which was the case here in VS2019 Community.
Installed extensions can not only be uninstalled, but also be disabled. In that case it looks like so:
The "Disable" and "Uninstall" buttons show up after a right-click on the corresponding object.
In my case and to my big astonishment, the Installer Project was disabled (showing "Enable" in the button), whoever did it.
It cost me about 2 hours to find out, some restarts of VS2019 and wondering about useless instructions about having to install the extension. After enabling, everything worked like before. Sigh of relief.
After doing lot of research on this topic, Visual Studio 2019 Community edition , is not supporting these kind of projects. Older versions like 2015 , 2010 supports.
Or convert these projects into a console application and run it for local setup and debugging.

Cannot open .csproj-file with Visual Studio C# 2010 Express

I'm trying to open this project (https://github.com/shtejv/ARDrone-Control-.NET) downloaded from the internet but just when I open the project this error appears: "The project type is not supported by this installation."
It also shows the solution corresponding to that project as unavailable.
What can I do? maybe should I download a newer version of Visual Studio?
EDIT: The project that is causing the fail is called ARDrone_Testing so maybe it's a unit testing project so I'll need the full version of VisualStudio2010. I read it in this post!
SOLUTION: It finally works properly, I've just finished installing vs2013 professional and open the project without any problem!
Thank you all!
I'm looking at the .sln file and it is created with Visual Studio 2010:
Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 11.00
# Visual Studio 2010
What project is failing? (the name of the project)
Additional dependencies like DirectX shouldn't affect the project loading.

Where is Visual studio 2012 Setup project template?

I'm trying to make the set up file but I unable to find any template to develop setup file.its seems like MS dump the set up wizard template.
I've tried with publish project and I got set up file. but not sure its good approach.
Since Visual studio 2012 the MS Deployment projects are deprecated. You can use WiX instead.
Use Install Shield template. It's coming up with Visual Studio 2012 and 2013

WPF Package Load Failure?

Package Load Failure
Package 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.Xaml' has failed tot load properly. . . yadda, yadda, yadda.
So now what? This package is somewhat important since I was hoping to do some WPF stuff this afternoon. Tried running without it and my XAML design view is gone.
I already tried "devenv /resetsettings" from the command prompt.
Thanks,
Scott
Try repairing the install.
Control Panel
Add Remove Programs
Select Visual Studio 2008 and choose "repair"
Did you recently install any updates to Visual Studio or any Add-Ins? If so can you please list them?
Install SP1: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=FBEE1648-7106-44A7-9649-6D9F6D58056E&displaylang=en
I had this problem after a fresh install of VS2008 Team System. Tried loading the updates, running setup, re-installing. No luck.
Installed SP1 and bingo! No more package load failures.
I -FINALLY- saw this error going into Tools|Options|Environment Fonts and Colors after trying everything I could think of to get it not to crash when I chose Tools|Import and Export Settings.
I had this problem when I installed Visual Studio Professional.
My theory was that it was because I already had Visual C# 2008 Express Edition installed.
Once I uninstalled both then reinstalled Visual Studio Professional it worked.
This is consistent with the OP's solution, which was to uninstall anything else which implemented XAML functionality.
In my case, just reinstalling SP1 didnt worked
Then i saw ive had two languages mixed in the IDE. So ive checked the installed programs and found:
Microsoft Visual Studio Tools For Applications 2.0 ENU
Microsoft Visual Studio Tools For Applications 2.0 Language Pack - ESN
When ive uninstalled the additional pack, the design views started to work again
In my case the machine.config file had gotten some bad XML due to a recent installation. There were two closing tags. After we corrected the bad XML, .NET works just fine.
Thank you Abraham for the hint. I was missing an end tag in my .NET 2.0 x86 machine.config.
However I had already spent hours repairing, uninstalling, installing and installing service packs.
WOULDN'T IT BE NICE IF VISUAL STUDIO 2008 GAVE A "MACHINE.CONFIG" CORRUPT ERROR!
