如何备份 Visual Studio 2015/2017 布局？

Question

如何在 Visual Studio 2015/2017 中备份窗口布局？

导出设置不会导出所有布局（只是当前布局）。我知道 AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/VisualStudio 下有一个名为 WindowLayouts 的目录，但它再次仅存储当前布局。

我想备份所有这些而不导出每个布局的设置。
Visual Studio 将它们存储在哪里？

Answer 1

Visual Studio 2017+ 将并行安装的窗口布局信息保存在[LOCALAPPDATA]/Microsoft/VisualStudio/{VisualStudioInstanceID}.

我编写了一个脚本，通过 循环遍历所有实例，vswhere.exe并备份和恢复（如果感兴趣，请联系我！）这些设置。

注意：执行脚本时 请确保您已vswhere.exe下载并在当前环境变量中可用。PATH
