Import of Visual Studio settings don't work
I just read Khalid's post about importing VS-Code and Visual Studio settings into Rider in the current EAP. (build 212.3724.19). I restored the default settings and after restarting rider presents me the import screen. But it didn't recognized my Visual Studio installations. Only importing VS-Code settings is presented. I have two Installations of Visual Studio 2019 Enterprise on my machine the production version 16.10.0 and the preview version 16.11.0 Preview 1. Is this a bug or is the feature incomplete?
Additonally even after restoring the backup made while restoring the default settings my former settings and recent projects are gone. Fortunately i had synced my settings with my account so i could easily restore them.
Kind Regards

On another machine with Visual Studio 2019 Community the import works slightly better. I have the opportunity to import the keyboard shortcuts and recent projects, but the other settings arn't available.

Hi Andreas Seibt!
Thanks for contacting us.
What settings do you want to be imported those are didn't?
Also, could you please answer to the following questions:
- were any instances of Visual Studio launched when you tried to import settings?
- what do you mean by Visual Studio installations were not recognized? Do you have "failed to import" error for them?
- Do you have ReSharper installed for any of VS instances?
We will be much appreciated if you could reproduce the described case on your first machine and attach screenshot of the "import" window and logs from `Help | Collect logs`.
One can also create a new issue in YouTrack with `Help | Report a bug`. In this case, logs collect and attach automatically, so you will need to add only the details and a screenshot. Logs add privately in youtrack. Also, you can upload them to our service if you don't want to create a youtrack issue.
Thank you in advance and have a great day!
