Answer 1

See if this resembles your issue.

Answer 2

Hi,

I uninstalled Team Foundation Server 2010 but that didn't help.

I repaired Visual Studio 2010 Premium and reinstalled SP1, and that fixed it.

I would like to say that I unstalled Visual Studio 2011 Preview (Ultimate, not with Windows 8) the previous night along with SQL Server "Denali". (I unistalled it too.) I'm not saying those caused it, I'm just putting it down "for the record" in case it helps someone else.

Answer 3

I actually did the same thing, uninstalled the 2011 preview from my win7 machine, and now i am running into the same error.

Thanks for the fix, will try now!

Answer 4

The same.  I have to uninstall VS 11 DevPreview to install Beta. Then I came across the same no "VCTargetPath" thing.

Try the first answer here, adding missing stuff back works for me.
