Installation seems incomplete.

Question

I've tried to install Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition with SP1 on my laptop with Windows XP Professional.
I download everything successfully and start installation. It goes fine up to the end, but I can't find the .exe file to run VB. I get only 2 .exe: DeleteTemp and Setup. During installation my anti-virus is off. What must be happening?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi PY1LL,

Thank you for your post.

Could you please help me to check whether you can find .....Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\vbexpress.exe?

If this file doesn't exist, please run AutoUninstall Tool: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/bb968856.aspx to uninstall Visual Studio Express Edition. Then download offline install and install it again.

Hope this helps! If you have any concern, please feel free to let me know.

Best regards,
Yichun Chen
