Please note that even if this extension were to be made to work with more recent versions of VS, it is not really usable for "current" Rust, because the most recent development predates event the 2018 Edition of Rust, so the grammar for the syntax highlighting is outdated, more recent Cargo features are not supported, and the autocompletion (based on "racer") was never really working well to begin with.
So I would consider any effort to make this extensions work with recent VS to be a waste of time.
Visual Studio Code with the rust-analyzer extensions will provide a much better experience.

Same question. Is a version that supports Visual Studio 2017 available?

I have experience getting this type of Visual Studio Extension working on VS 2017, 2019, 2022. Is there interest in this still?
