[wix-devs] VS2019 - How to get intellisense working for WIX tasks and extensions in .wixproj msbuild file

Wrong mailing list. This is for devs developing the WiX Toolset itself. Try wix-users mailing instead.

The `.wixproj` project file starts like this:

```

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<Project ToolsVersion="4.0" DefaultTargets="Build"
InitialTargets="EnsureWixToolsetInstalled"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003" >

```



For example I want to have intellisense for the following schemas in my `wixproj` file:



```

   xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"

   xmlns:util="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension"

   xmlns:netfx="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/NetFxExtension"

```



I've already checked the schemas under `XML-->Schemas` in VS.



What else do I need to do, to get intellisense working?
