In Visual Studio 2015 and earlier there was an easy way to add a custom control to the Toolbox by adding a registry key in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\WOW6432Node\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\XX.0\\ToolboxControlsInstaller
It seems not working anymore in Visual Studio 2017, someone know how to achieve the same goal?
Starting from VS2017, Microsoft wants to reduce the registry impact (as described here ) and each instance (Professional, Community, etc...) installed on the same machine for the same user has its own settings.
In short:
BTW both in registry and %VSAppDataVisualStudio% folder, the new subkeys/subfolders are created for each Visual Studio instance.
