Helper for using the ErrorList Description. (in Visual Studio 2019)
Download

Make it easier to work with items in the Visual Studio Error List by copying or searching (with Bing) for just the description of an error.

No more wasting time copying the whole row and then extracting the description. This extension adds three helper commands to make it easier for dealing with errors.

When there are bugs to fix, you don't want to be messing about with re-typing error messages or a clipboard full of unhelpful junk.

Go to Tools > Options > Error Helper and choose to search with Bing, Google, or StackOverflow. You can also opt to remove file paths from search strings.


A version compatible with Visual Studio 2022 is also available.
