SQL search icon not showing up in SSMS v17.4

rgfriend

I tried to install SQL search 3 on SSMS v 17.4. It says intallation completed.
But I cannot see the icon shows up on the top of the screen, it is not available.
I installed SQL prompt, it shows up. We have the toolbelt license.

How can I fix SQL search, thanks!

Hi,

Thanks for your post!

Can you confirm if you installed the latest version of SQL Search? i.e. 3.0.7.1683?

Does this helps?

I have the same issue. I am running Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 14.0.17213.0 (which is 17.4). I have installed SQL Search 3.07.1683. I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it. I have repaired the SSMS Integration Pack 1. Nothing has worked.

I found it.
It is actually hidden on the right corner tab, when I click a down error, it shows up.

Oh wow I feel like an idiot now. Thanks!

I have the same issue, especially the sql search button disappears randomly or sometimes after an update. Is there a way to restore them without reinstalling SSMS? I use SSMS 18.12.1 and Redgate toolbelt 10.13.

slice masters I'm having the same issue—my SQL search button randomly disappears, especially after updates. Is there any way to restore it without having to reinstall SSMS? I’m currently using SSMS 18.12.1 with Redgate Toolbelt 10.13. Any advice?
