Problems since installation of Release 1.8.206 Designer for Wix Pro in VS2015 C#
Wix Designer Release 1.8.206 causes issues in VS2015

Since installating the latest Release 1.8.206 of "Designer for Wix Pro" in my VS2015 Pro C#, I am getting issues.

I then uninstalled it, rebooted and reinstalled it. This worked for a short time, then today again i get in VS Project Explorer the Information that the SETUP Project is incompatible.

before updating the designer i had absolutely no Problems!!

I have following tools installed:

- Visual Studio Prof. 2015 (V. 14.0.25431.01 update 3)
- Wix Toolset 3.11
- Designer for Wix Pro (Release 1.8.206)


Sorry for the German error message:

Hello Christian,

It looks like you haven't installed the WiX Toolset Visual Studio 2015 extension; see http://wixtoolset.org/releases/.
