I'm trying to install AJAX and trying to get the .dll into the newly created Ajax Toolkit tab on the toolbar, but it seems to do nothing... I've looked at several tutorials, tried NuGet... nothing works... done this before on another machne with no porblems...
I'm running Win7 and VS 2010 Pro.
To add to the Toolbox, you need to create a new tab by right-clicking within the Toolbox. After creating the new tab, called "AJAX Control Toolkit", right-click again and select Choose Items.... This will bring up a dialog that will allow for you to browse
to where you have the Toolkit DLL. When you add this to the dialog, all of the existing controls should show up highlighted and marked. Click OK in the dialog and the new controls will be added to your Toolbox. Note that you will need have an ASPX file
open when doing this.

I did the above and looked at other posts. I tried NOT dragging the .dll and simply choose the option from my tab called "Choose Items" - got the tools but they are grayed-out I'm running 4.0 framework and downloaded the 4.0 Ajax but still grayed out. I
have an aspx page open of course. Made sure .dll was unlocked before using it. Restarted VS and Windows, still all AJAX tools grayed out.

I tried to get Nuget to run and it failed also. Is there no way to un-gray the tools I already see listed?

Hi,
You could delete the ajaxcontrol toolkit toolbox. And then add that again via nuget or manually.

I'm guessing that you're using Web Forms, correct?
