Fix for "Add STS Reference" missing in Visual Studio 2010

If for some reason, you reset your designer settings or revert to an older version, you will notice that the add STS reference command is no longer available.

To resolve this:

  1. Run Visual Studio Command Prompt in administrator mode
  2. Run the following commands
    cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\"
    devenv.exe /ResetAddin Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tools.VS.VSAddin.FederationAddin

Thanks a million ton. This worked like a charm. None of the other posts on net mentioned this trick.
