SSMS Tools Pack 1.7.5.1 is out! Bug fixes for my international users.

Due to a bug i haven’t anticipated, a whole load of users with non English SSMS couldn’t install the latest SSMS Tools Pack 1.7.

The SSMS Tools Pack 1.7.5.1 fixes this as well as 1 other major bug that was reported and 3 smaller ones.

The feature list hasn’t changed.

 

You can simply reinstall 1.7.5.1 over the 1.7.0.0.

If you’re still on 1.5 or less then you’ll have to manually uninstall it and install 1.7.5.1.

 

You can download the new version here.

 

Hopefully this will bring back joy to everyone :)

Bugs are always to be anticipated.
and this being my "in my free time" project it's better to give a disclaimer :)

re: SSMS Tools Pack 1.7.5.1 is out! Bug fixes for my international users.
I've installed this version (never installed it before) with an administrator account, but when running under an unprivileged user, it fails with the following error:

"""
The Add-in 'SSMS Tools Pack 1.7' failed to load or caused an exception.
Would you like to remove this Add-in?
If you choose yes, you will need to reinstall the Add-in to use it again.

Error Message: Class not registered

Error number: 80040154
"""

I've tried looking for a setup file in .exe format, as suggested in the post in the following link (which seems to resolve the issue for the user), but unfortunately, I can't seem to find it anywhere... I using SSMS 2005, and it's not the express edition.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Hi.
This is a bug in the installer. I'll fix it in the next version. For now you'll have to run it under the admin account.
