### SQL Server Management Studio 18 and Later

For SSMS versions where direct extension installation is not available, install the VSIX package manually.

1. Download the SSRS Reports Migration Wizard VSIX from the [Visual Studio Marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=AzureOps.srmw2022) or your AzureOps download package.
2. Extract `SSRS.Reports.Migration.Wizard.vsix` with 7-Zip into a folder named `SSRS Reports Migration Wizard`.
3. Copy that folder into the appropriate SSMS extensions directory, for example:
   `C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 18Common7IDEExtensions`
4. Restart SSMS.
5. Open **Tools → SSRS Reports Migration Wizard**.

[![Launch the wizard from SQL Server Management Studio](https://i0.wp.com/azureops.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Launch-from-ssms.png?w=800&ssl=1)](https://i0.wp.com/azureops.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Launch-from-ssms.png?ssl=1)

For SSMS 19, 20, 21, or 22, use the equivalent version-specific installation directory. Administrator permissions may be required when copying files into `Program Files`.

### Standalone Installation

1. Extract the installer package or VSIX contents into a folder named `SSRS Reports Migration Wizard`.
2. Place the folder somewhere you have execute permissions.
3. Double-click `SSRS.Reports.Migration.Wizard.exe`.

> **Important:** Deactivation may be irreversible for the current license key. Contact AzureOps support if you are unsure about the licensing consequences.
