Rather than using loads of half-supported add-ins on Visual Studio (2012), I would like to be able to right-click a file or folder in Solution Explorer or a document tab and have all the options I have on Windows explorer (e.g. Tortoise SVN, edit with Sublime Text, etc.). Is there an add-in, or something quick I can write myself that will allow this?

Is it possible to code against file in the Solution Explorer such as adding to the right click menu items when clicking on a file?
I'm trying to make a C# application and I need the server explorer but I can't find it when I click on View menu. I am using Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2015. Is it disabled or did I do something wrong?
If it is missing you can modify your View menu using the following instructions:
Open Visual Studio
Go to Tools > Customize...
Click the Commands tab
Select View from the Menu Bar dropdown (make sure the Menu Bar radio button is selected)
Scroll down the menu window until you see Solution Explorer and select it.
Click the Add Command... button
Scroll down the Categories list and select View
Scroll down the resulting Commands list and select Server Explorer
Click the OK button
The Bad
If you double click on the solution (SLN) file, the result is this.
If you close the solution, the result is this.
The Good
If you close Visual Studio 2015, and then just run it without opening any solution, the result is this.
The Ugly
Click on File,
Open,
Project/Solution,
Browse to your solution's folder,
Select the solution file,
Click the Open button.
There you go! You will now find it under the View menu. I have a screenshot to prove it.

I'm making addin for visual studio 2012(C#).
I added a menu item with AddCommandBar method, then I changed the menu name.
After that previous menu was disabled but not removed.
I want to remove the addin menu but I can't.
I tried these links but they don't work.

Dead items in context menu left by addin in Visual Studio
Even I try to reinstall visual studio 2012 but still that menu is alive.
Tools -> Add-in Manager.. is disabled.
How can I remove that addin menu?
I found this link.

With 'reset settings from Tools/Import and Export Settings', I can remove disabled addin menu.
Find CurrentSetings.vssettings file path from Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Import and Export Settings. Open CurrentSetings.vssettings xml file and find and remove all your addin related elements. Then restart visual studio 2012 IDE.
What i want to get: after double click on file in Source Control Explorer, connected to TFS, it must be opened in external text editor ( like Notepad++ ).
Problem: 'View with..' menu item is missing, so i don't know how to change default editor to files listed in Source Control Explorer.
Apps installed: Visual Studio 2013 + Team Explorer for Visual Studio 2013 + TFS 2010 on server
I installed the Power Tools...

... and then in my context menu "Advanced" --> "View With" appeared.
Visual Studio 2010 now opens XSD files in design mode by default. I can't find any option for disabling this. Is there a way to always open XSD files in text mode?
Right click on an XSD file, choose "Open with..." and select the appropriate option - then click on "Set as Default" before you actually open it.
Visual Studio 2012, right click XSD file, Advanced, View with.
