    Hi Daniel,
       Yes, please try this on a clean system. Alternatively, you could simply "reset the experimental hive" from the Start Menu and rebuild your package. It sounds like the registration for VS got messed up at some point. In any case VS 2005 RC + September 2005 VS SDK is a valid (and tested) combination.

    Hello Ori,

    I've used the wizard for creation of my test managed package with the "Custom Editor" option checked. It generated all the necessary files and the build went without problems.

    Then I started debug, the new VS opened and reported that some packages couldn't be loaded. I continued with the debug and tried to create a dummy C# project. The "New project" wizard didn't allow me to add a C# or any other project beside C++ project. I tried to create an empty solution but the VS crashed.
     
    When I added a C++ project, the package worked fine. Strange behavior....

    Before the RC1 and September SDK installation, I had a Beta 2 with the August CTP. This combination worked excellent. Maybe the previous installation of these two (on the same system) is somehow responsible for this strange behavior... should I install the RC1 and September SDK on a clean system

    Thanks,
    Daniel
