Change automation plugin broken under Visual Studio 17.9

Hi. After upgrading to Visual Studio 17.9, the change automation pluggin is broken. It is impossible to show the dialog to change the DB connection. Clicking the button does nothing and we found this in the log :

Error|RedGate.Versioning.Client.VsShell.VisualStudio.ConnectionDialog.VisualStudioConnectionDialog|1| Error in ShowConnectionDialog:
System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: 'Boolean Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionDlg.Core.CommonUtil.IsInteractiveAuthenicationSupported()'.

Thanks

    I am also getting this error on a fresh Visual Studio 17.9 install. Then VS crash when it happens and I'm unable to connect SCA to my Database. Is there any way we could add or edit a connection string manually for SCA  to use as a workaround ?

    We also have the error on our side.  Visual Studio just crashed and I found the same error as you in %LocalAppData%\Red Gate\Logs\SQL Change Automation\VS\

    Hi @JeromeL, @YLarente, @JM123

    I've been able to reproduce this behaviour, apologies for this inconvenience, I'm going to escalate this straight to the developers 

    As a temporary workaround, you can modify the database connection strings if you go to the project in file explorer and edit the "sqlproj.user" file

    Hi @JeromeL, @YLarente, @JM123


    We've just released SQL Change Automation version 4.6.24074 which should resolve the issue with the connection dialogue in Visual Studio
