visual studio .net setup : After deinstallation of Orca, can't Install Smart Device SDKs in VS 2005
Hi
Thanks for your reply Actually it's not really my production machine, but my second machine where I test always things out. But yeah I dont want to reinstall Windows if there is a easier solution to this problem. Yes I've uninstalled Orca and all of its components first, as that did not work, I've uninstalled and reinstalled all VS 2005-components too...

Hello
I am developing for Mobile Devices with VS 2005. Now I've had installed the Beta of Orca, which really didnt work yet as expected. But yeah it's a beta. So I've uninstalled it, but now I could not use any installed Device Emulator on VS 2005 anymore. So I've uninstalled ALL components of VS 2005, all Emulators. And then I've reinstalled it all. It gives no error message, it is installing the Smart Device SDKs normally (WM 5.0 & WM 6.0), but the Emulators dont show up anymore in the Device Emulator, and I cannot select the project templates in VS 2005 anymore... Any hint how I can solve that? Thanks Sven
This is why you should never install pre-released software on production
machines. It is generally important you uninstall the beta product in the correct order, did you do this? -- Simon Hart http://srhartone.blogspot.com [quoted text, click to view] "Sven Rutten" wrote:

As you have tried reinstalling VS 2005 to no avail, you may need to manually remove any and all references to Visual Studio and/or dotnet from your registry before installing VS 2005. If that fails, you may have to reinstall you OS.
if nothing else works, try restoring from a restore-point instead of
re-installing windows. it might save you some work.

Have you read the release notes, it should tell you how to uninstall the
beta. You might have to remove various reg keys etc just like you had to do with the Jan CTP version of Orcas. I recommend using Microsoft Virtual Server/Virtual PC in the future to install CTP's/beta's -- Simon Hart http://srhartone.blogspot.com [quoted text, click to view] "Sven Rutten" wrote:

Typically in issues like this the best option is
1) Remove the Data Store manually (Lots of info on the VSD Team blog) 2) Re-Install VS 2005 3) Re-Install the SDKs Your machine should be back to normal though any setting in the Data Store for personalization of SDKs / Emulators will be lost. Amit [quoted text, click to view] "Sven Rutten" wrote:
