Answer 1

Did you tamper with the VS templates, or change the project location? Have you tried reinstalling? Which project types did you try?

It's called Visual C++ Express Orcas, pretty far down on the list of MSDN Forums.

 

OH, someone moved it already.  I bet the original guy can't find it then unless he is getting Microsoft Alerts.  (I once had my mail server moved. Of course the admin notified me by sending me an e-mail.  I didn't receive it until I found the new server by other means, of course.)

Answer 3

Fortunately I have got the Microsoft Alerts and back to see.Now I am in the right place.Next time i won't find the wrong home.Thanks.

Answer 4

einaros,
I followed the instruction and wanted to creat the CLR empty project.For i just want to practice C++, no adding more usings. I have tried to creat the project in the files which i set up this software,but also didn't work.Does it exist the original location?

Answer 5

If you have Guidance Automation Extensions and/or Guidance Automation Toolkit installed,
check the file "devenv.exe.config" in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE" for the following setting.


      <dependentAssembly>
        <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft.VisualStudio.TemplateWizardInterface" publicKeyToken="b03f5f7f11d50a3a" culture="neutral" />
        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-8.9.9.9" newVersion="9.0.0.0" />
      </dependentAssembly>


Remove or comment out if it can be found.

Try create a new project again after restart VS2008.

Good Luck.
