Problem conclusion

• This defect is not reproducible.
  However, there is a known limitation that can cause problems
  with the Rhapsody-VS integration. To make sure that this is
  not the problem, follow these steps to verify that Visual
  Studio has only one path to the Rhapsody Addin installation:
  1) Open Visual Studio.
  2) From the menu, select Tools ? Options ? Environment ?
  Add-in/Macros Security.
  3) If this section includes more than one path to the
  Rhapsody Addin, remove the extra paths for previous Rhapsody
  installations.
  4) Remove the Rhapsody toolbar: Tools ? Customize ? Toolbar
  Tab, select the Rhapsody entry, and click Delete.
  5) Reopen Visual Studio.
  Now, the Rhapsody toolbar should be visible again, and the
  integration should work as designed.
