When SQL Server Management Studio loads, the SQL Refactor menu appears in the menu bar, but it is unavailable (greyed out).

Possible causes

This can happen either because the add-in had failed to load, or that SQL Server Management Studio needs to initialize the add-in.

How to fix

Initialize the add-in. To do this, open a command prompt on the affected computer and run this command:

SqlWb /setup

If the menu is still unavailable, try re-installing SQL Refactor.
