Description:
MySQL for Visual Studio 1.2.4 does not work in Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise. When I install the package, ADO.NET Entity Model template from Add -> Data disappears so I can't add entity models to my project. When I uninstall MySQL for Visual Studio 1.2.4, the template comes back.

How to repeat:
Install MySQL for Visual Studio 1.2.4
Uninstall MySQL for Visual Studio 1.2.4

Hello Mark,

Thank you for the bug report.
Verified based on internal discussion with dev's.

Thanks,

Please try installing Connector/NET and see of the ADO.NET Entity Model wizard does not close.
Some dependencies are currently needed that are installed by Connector/NET.
While this bug is resolved, I think this is a viable and easy workaround.

Hi,

I was unable to reproduce the issue, following the next steps in a new PC
with a fresh VS2015 Enterprise installation (default options selected):
1.- Install MySQL for Visual Studio 1.2.4
2.- Create a new web project
    -> File -> New -> Project -> Visual C# -> Web -> ASP.NET Web Application
-> MVC ->
3.- Add a new model
    -> Add -> New Item -> Data -> ADO.NET Entity Data Model
Actual results:
The template "ADO.NET Entity Data Model" is available from the "Data"
templates list.

Also, I tried with a windows form project:
1.- Install MySQL for Visual Studio 1.2.4
2.- Create a new web project
    -> File -> New -> Project -> Visual C# -> Windows -> Windows Forms
Application
3.- Add a new model
    -> Add -> New Item -> Data -> ADO.NET Entity Data Model
Actual results:
The template "ADO.NET Entity Data Model" is available from the "Data"
templates list.

Can you please provide specific steps on how to reproduce this issue ?
Any detailed information can be helpful so we can try to reproduce the
possible bug you are getting.

Thanks in advance.
