Ok I am trying to install the extension for VS Market place and I can getting the following error "One or more extensions can't be installed due to the following missing references" "Microsoft Visual Studio Editor"

This makes no sense to me as I assume "Microsoft Visual Studio Editor" is a required part of Visual Studio

I am using VS Community 2019 Version 16.8.4

I have discovered the same issue. Looking into the source.extension.vsixmanifest file, it looks like the "Microsoft Visual Studio Editor" is referencing "Microsoft.VisualStudio.ErrorListPkg":
<Dependency d:Source="Installed" Id="Microsoft.VisualStudio.ErrorListPkg" DisplayName="Microsoft Visual Studio Editor" Version="[14.0,15.0)" />
This dosen't seem right. Can this dependency be removed, or should it be referencing something else? Or what?

Update: In the wsixmanifest designer in VS, if you select "Microsoft Visual Studio Editor", it references "Microsoft.VisualStudio.Platform.Editor" by default. I tried changing to this, built and installed the extension, and it seems to work.
I have also made several changes to the references + changed build platform to .Net 4.7.2 to be able ot integrate with my system, VS 2019 on Win11. Will post a pull request :-)
