Solution for missing "Edit WCF Configuration" menu option in Visual Studio 2008
Visual Studio 2008 April 3rd, 2009Sometimes when you have an existing project where you added a WCF Service, the context menu item “Edit WCF Configuration” for a web.config will not show.
The picture above does show the menu item I’m talking about, but you may find that it is not there.
But there is an easy workaround. Open the Tools menu in Visual Studio and select “Wcf Service Configuration Editor”. This will open the tool you need, but doesn’t open your web.config. Close the tool and right-click your web.config file. The “Edit WCF Configuration” context menu should be there now.
Cheers,

This workaround actually did not worked for me.
The problem is that WCF Config tool does not seem to work with if the WCF project was created using WCF Service Application template under Web project type.
Workaround that I am using is to add another dummy WCF project in your solution, but this time chose WCF Service Library under WCF project type.
