Description

Current behavior

Message that it is already installed to all applicable products appears even though it is not installed in Visual Studio 2022.

Expected behavior

Note: Sorry for the all the extra details. I probably could have stopped with the title on this one.

Describe the bug
Installing "The Essentials 2022" causes editorconfig UI functionality to stop working in VS 2022. I had the issue a few months ago when I was working at another company and thought it was unlikely that this extension caused the issues. Now I'm at another company and it has happened again.

The editorconfig UI no longer opens when editing a .editorconfig file. More specifically, the editorconfig UI seems to work until the first time a .editorconfig file is opened in the VS text editor. Subsequently, only the text view is available.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Install extension The Essentials 2022
2. Open a .editorconfig file and note that it opens in the EditorConfig UI
3. Open the same .editorconfig file using a VS text editor
4. Try opening the same .editorconfig file using the EditorConfig UI. Note that only the text editor opens

Expected behavior
The .editorconfig file can be opened in both the UI and in the text editor.

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Additional context
Repairing VS fixes the issue. VS repair is a very painful approach since it resets all customizations in VS.
