Clean install of Windows 10, VS2015 Update 1 with all updates applied.
After adding this extension I am unable to cleanly shutdown Visual Studio. I get this error;
'Object reference not set to an instance of an object'. I must then use task manager to kill the Visual Studio instance. If I disable the extension then all is fine. Would've attached screenshots but this tool is failing me!
Edit: the first screenshot appeared after saving this issue, maybe I can make more attachments!
Edit 2: I have solved this issue. It turns out that the SQLCEDeviceRuntime msi file does not format the entries in the all machine.config files nicely. I reformatted the DbProviders section to make sure each entry was on its own separate line. After a machine reboot, I re-enabled this extension and was successful in establishing a connection to a compact database and then exiting VS2015 without erros. This issue can be marked as closed.

Qeury editor was not open. And the options made no difference. See Edit #2 in the description box. Thank you for your wonderful tool and for the quick response.
