Cannot update extensions based on the new extensibility model #450

I'm developing several extensions using the new extensions model (named VisualStudio.Extensibility maybe). The Visual Studio Updater is launched when installing and updating these extensions. But every time I want to update such an extension, I get the following message in the installer:

(the screenshot is from an issue on my repo reported by a user. But I'm getting the same message in another language)

The only way to update the extension is to do this:

  • Launch Visual Studio Installer.
  • Click Modify on your Visual Studio version.
  • Go to the Individual components tab.
  • Search for 'exception'.
  • Uncheck the 'Exception Visualizer'
  • Click 'Modify'
  • Then install the extension from scratch.

These are the instructions I have given for my extension Exception Visualizer.

Is there something broken in the upgrade process for this kind of extension? Or am I doing something wrong?
