I have a menu item in the Tools menu, but it needs to go in the file->new menu, however even changing "Tools" to "File" in the pre-generated visual studio code does not give the expected result!!!?

You need to change the eventlistner code as well. Check the auto generated code segment at the top part of the code.

The following code (not bulletproof'd!) works fine for me in Addin OnConnection method:
_applicationObject = (DTE2)application;
_addInInstance = (AddIn)addInInst;
if (connectMode == ext_ConnectMode.ext_cm_UISetup)
{
object[] contextGUIDS = new object[] { };
Commands2 commands = (Commands2)_applicationObject.Commands;
CommandBars commandBars = (CommandBars)_applicationObject.CommandBars;
CommandBar menuBarCommandBar = commandBars["MenuBar"];
CommandBarPopup filePopup = menuBarCommandBar.Controls["File"] as CommandBarPopup;
CommandBarPopup newPopup = filePopup.CommandBar.Controls["New"] as CommandBarPopup;
Command command = commands.AddNamedCommand2(_addInInstance, "MyAddin1", "MyAddin1",
"Executes the command for MyAddin1", true, 59, ref contextGUIDS,
(int)(vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusSupported | vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusEnabled),
(int)vsCommandStyle.vsCommandStylePictAndText, vsCommandControlType.vsCommandControlTypeButton);
if (command == null || newPopup == null)
{
command.AddControl(newPopup.CommandBar, 1);
}
}

The code 'looks' like it should work but putting that code in my project does nothing. I still have my command int he tools menu and I can even go through the breakpoints I set and nothing has changed from appearance

Does this code work if you create a new VS add-in?

Have you tried running devenv.exe /resetaddin Your.AddIn.Name at the command line (e.g. devenv.exe /resetaddin MyAddin1.Connect)?
