title: Cannot import window layouts into VS2013 from VS2012
body: <p>I'm having trouble importing window layouts from Visual Studio 2012 to Visual Studio 2013. </p>
  
  <p>I'm getting this error message, when I try to import *.vssettings file exported from VS2012 to VS2013:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Your settings were imported, but there are some warnings.</p>
    
    <p>Warning 1:  Category 'Window Layouts'
    ({eb4ba109-a9db-4445-bd09-e7604bcdce84}) could not be migrated because
    the author of the category did not provide support for migration.</p>

  <p>I had same problem with importing window layouts from VS2010 to VS2012. I thought there was some kind of breaking change that prevented direct importing, so I just recreated my preferred window layout in VS2012.</p>
  
  <p>So basically I have to recreate my preferred window layout once again in VS2013. Does anyone have any suggestion how to solve this?</p>
  
  <p>By the way, I've tried to reset settings in VS2013 (Tools -> Import and Export Settings -> Reset all settings...) and then try import settings from VS2012, but no change.</p>
  
  <p>Edit: what's weird, is that I can create a window layout in VS2013, export it, reset settings in VS and then import back settings with that window layout and the import is successful (imported window layout gets applied).</p>
  
  <p>Does this mean Microsoft completely dropped support for migrating window layouts from one version of Visual Studio to another? I would understand, if the imported window layout contains layout information for non-existing windows (like VS2012 -> VS2010 import). But standard way of migrating settings (to newer version of software) should be supported, right?</p>
