A Visual Studio (2015 - 2022+) extension that adds a right-click context menu command that allows you to open the solution file, project file, or file in Notepad++.
In order to use this extension, you must have Visual Studio 2015, 2017, 2019, or 2022, as well as Notepad++ installed.
You can download Notepad++ for free.
The extension will automatically find notepad++.exe when it's located at in the default install directory. If it's installed in a custom location, you can easily change it in the settings dialog.
Contributions are welcome! Issues, PRs, etc. Since there are two extensions in this repo that each target different versions of Visual Studio, see the individual READMEs for specific instructions to contribute to each one.
