Installing Windows Workflow Foundation Beta 1

Installing Windows Workflow Foundation Beta 1

  We are part of SDK for WinFX runtime components (documentation and samples) but we don't own the installation. I am not sure if this is the right forum to ask this question.

  Is it planned to release a Windows Workflow Foundation version that is compatible with VS.NET released at the PDC conference

  We're looking into it.  Sorry I don't have a better answer, but as you can imagine aligning releases is challenging.   The Beta 2 release scheduled for late this calendar year will definitely use the RTM version. 
  
  I'll post some information to the forum as soon as a new release is available.

  James,
  
  Quick question, I installed WWF with the Beta 2 build and everything was working fine.  I uninstalled the Beta 2 build and everything except WWF to install the RC of VS.  When I attempt to open VS RC, I get the VS splash screen and then it goes away and VS doesn't continue to load.  I don't see WWF in the ARP listing.  I am *assuming* the problem is with WWF incompatibility.  If so, what is the GUID I can pass to msiexec /u to uninstalll WWF
  
  Thanks,

  Thanks Iza, I will give that GUID a try when I get home tonight.  I installed WWF Beta 1 as a standalone.

  There's some discussion about releasing an RC compatible version, but the plans are not finalized at this point.
