"The proper type library could not be found in the system registry."

I just installed WF on my machine and now get this error every time I load the IDE.  I did not install any of the WinFx components as they looked to be optional.

Can anyone point me to the component it is referencing.  It says have an administrator login and it will work but I am the administrator so thats not it.

If I need the WinFx components I can install them, but was wanting to install as little as possible until the RTM compatible version is out.

Thanks much.

Jesse

    I have not seen this error before.  Can anyone else on the forum help Jesse out

    I did do a quick search on the error message and found this thread:
    http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/showpost.aspx postid=107979&siteid=1.  Did the problem happen directly after installing WF, or have you added/removed SQL Server as well



  • TheArchitect

    Yeah, I had seen that one too but I have not installed the SQL 2005.  It did occur right after installing WF but since it doesn't seem to be a common issue I'll do a reinstall and see if that removes the issue.  Either way, I can still work so I'll just deal until the RTM compatible version comes out.

    Any news on the RTM compatible version

    RTMrelease and install fixed whatever the problem was

    Just to be sure, which version of VS are you using   Only VS Beta2 is supported for WF Beta1.

    Confirmed I am running VS 2005 beta 2 (build ending in 044 I believe).
