Hi,
Could someone confirm if support for Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime (vstor_redist.exe) continues?
I found information that support for Visual Studio 2010 will be discontinued, and I wonder what's the case regarding VSTO.
We have some excel add-ins that use this component, and lack of support may cause many issues for our customers.
Thanks!

    Visual studio tools for office is not currently supported here on QnA. They're actively answering questions in dedicated forums here.

    The questions sounds more related to Visual Studio and not Excel-ITProd. It's better to reach out to expert in a dedicated forum below for Visual Studio - https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/spaces/21/index.html

    Apparently I have to be a developer and use Visual studio to ask a question there. This is not the case, I need an answer from Microsoft representative regarding support of the product that is a part of our software.
    Can you please direct me to the appropriate place to do this?

    Thanks Patrick, I can post a question there.
    On https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/spaces/21/index.html I didn't have this option.
