The 'QtVsToolsPackage' did not load correctly

[Kier]

Hello,

I've fallen at the first hurdle while trying to get into Qt. After installing MSVS 2022 and the Qt Visual Studio Tools extension, upon launch of VS I get the following error:

The AcitivyLog shows the following ERRORS

If the file specified is QtVsTools.dll, then it is definitely present.

I've no idea what might cause this one.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you.

I found this cryptic error means there is a prerequsitie:

• Ensure that "Desktop development with C++" workload is installed in MSVSC:
  

After reinstalling the Qt extension, it no longer complains.

Furthermore:

• Run Qt MaintenanceTool.exe and ensure MSVC 2022 option is installed:
  

• When prompted in MSVSC, hit Import and browse to C:\Qt\6.9.3\msvc2022..
