Please can some show me how to install toad plugin for ssms?
I dont want to install the full toad software we just want to install the plugin
Here's an excerpt from Toad's Installation Guide, located here:
https://support.quest.com/technical-documents/toad-for-sql-server/7.2/installation-guide
Install and Uninstall Toad Plug-In
Launch SsmsInstallation.exe from the Windows command prompt as administrator.
-
Open SSMS Installation directory (/ SSMS Installation) from the
Windows command prompt. -
Enter the following:
SsmsInstallation.exe [Type of Product/Mode] "[TSS Installation Directory]"
Where:
[Type of Product/Mode] can be Uninstall, Freeware, Beta, Commercial, Trial
[TSS Installation Directory] is the directory where Toad for SQL Server resides.
Example:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Quest Software\Toad for SQL Server 7.2\SSMS
Installation\SsmsInstallation.exe Commercial "C:\Program Files (x86)\Quest
Software\Toad for SQL Server 7.2"
Im confused. is this installing the entire Toad for sql server 7.2 or just the plugin ?
what we are having trouble with is to install just the plugin for SSMS. I see people showcasing on youtube but they dont show how they installed only the plugin .
SsmsInstallation.exe is the key here.... this is a separate install executable that comes with the Toad product. This is assuming that you have installed Toad for SQL Server already. Then, with SSMSinstallation.exe, a Toad kernel engine can be plugged into your SSMS. Check the Install Guide for more info.
ok. i have already install toad for sql. where will the executable located. c
See Step 1 and the example given previously... e.g.
< your Toad Install Dir >\SSMS Installation\SsmsInstallation.exe
