We don't award the achievement unless you selected that.

I see the problem in the achievements extension: at some point, there was no dataCacheClients node, just the dataCacheClient node (no plural) so our code looks for the path: /configuration/dataCacheClient/hosts/host

 At some point, the configuration schema changed.  So, if you want to get the achievement before we push a fix to the extension (which could be awhile) , make your config match that pattern and it should unlock...

We believe many people reporting issues with proxies will be fixed by this build.

In specific, some proxies were sending a Expect: 100-Continue header from the HttpWebRequest class, which the server wasn't prepared to handle. The fix was to set the static System.Net.ServicePointManager.Expect100Continue property to false.

Also, when you upgrade your extension, if you get a certificate mismatch error, install this hotfix: http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/Downloads/DownloadDetails.aspx?DownloadID=38654, which will address updating this extension and any other extensions. If you don't want to install the hot fix, you can manually uninstall the extension and then reinstall with the new version.If you are still having issues with your proxy server and this build doesn't solve your problems, please post here and we will continue to investigate the proxy problem.

If you installed version 1.0 of the extension and registered with a username that had an underscore, you will need to take the following steps. 

1. Go to Tools --> Extension Manager...

2. Click Updates and update the Visual Studio Achievements Extension

3. Restart Visual Studio

4. Go to Tools --> Options --> VS Achievements and click the Change User button

5. Log in and authorize the app

Follow these steps in this exact order and you should be good to go!

It must be the FxCop that comes with Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4 Version 7.1.

Additionally, if you install FxCop 10.0 somewhere other than the default location ("Program Files"), the extension won't find it. We've logged this as a bug which we will address in a future release of the extension.
