Package Load Failure

When starting Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition I get the following error;

< XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX = O /> 

Package Load Failure

Package ‘Visual Studio Explores and Designer Package’ has failed to load properly (GUID={8D8529D3-625D-4496-8354-3DAD630ECC1B} Please contact  vendor for assistance. Application restart is recommended, due to possible environment corruption. Would you like to disable loading this package in the future You may use ‘VWDExpress/resetskippkgs’ to re-enable package loading.

 

After Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition loads, I only have HTML in the toolbox and I cannot see the properties at all. Since I do not have any of the other tools available such as Standard, Data, and Validation etc, I also cannot seem to use any of the code. Could someone help me on this, anybody else having this issue This is on a Windows XP SP2

 

I have ran VWDExpress /resetsettings, but this did not seem to solve the issue.

 

I am going to uninstall all the components and reinstall them.

    If you had Beta1 previously installed, this posting may help: http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2005/04/21/410573.aspx.

    I'm sorry I don't remember precisely which files it were but they had the same filename but different version numbers. I think it was from some Beta I installed. The Beta files had a higher version number than the files in the final release so the program must have used the Beta files.

    Maybe this can help you!

    I found in some blogg that it could be something with the files in C:\WINDOWS\assembly. I looked there and found duplicates of some of the Microsoft.VisualStudio files. I the checked the properties of some of those files and found that some of them were old. I uninstalled these and now the program runs perfectly.

    I too am experiencing this same issue.  Can you share which files in C:\Windows\Assembly you found duplicated   I wonder how the operating
    system allowed that to happen   Interesting isn't it.
