I am using Windows XP SP1 and Visual Studio .NET 2003 Enterprise.


The whole thing when I tried to remove MSDN January 2004. I ended up
manually deleting the library from the disk, before trying to upgrade to
April 2004. This did not work.

I have no tried to uninstall the VS.Net. The installer told me that VS.Net
was successfully removed, eventhough the files still remains on the disk.

When I now tries to reinstall VS.Net, the installer ends with this log...

The last time I got into the same problem, I ended up reinstalling the
computer... There have to be an easier way...

Hi all...

Just wanted you to know what solved my problem.

It was not firewall or anti-virus programs, but the fact that I once (a long
time ago) encrypted my %TEMP% folder. Removing the encrypting on the folder
made the re-installation work as normal.

The information that gave me a hint, was this one:
