Hello everyone,

I posted some replies in some older threads but figured they might not get answered since the "answered/not answered" icon was already set to "answered". Anyway here is my problem:

I don't have any of the ASP.NET templates installed. I'm using "Visual Studio 2005 Professional" and I did a complete install.

I do not have any ASP.NET web site templates when I choose to create a new web site. I also tried to find them when creating a new project. They're just not there.

I tried the following but it did nothing:
devenv /installvstemplates
devenv /setup

I also tried repairing the installation. That didn't help.

Someone please help.

Did you try to call Microsoft tech support? I would recommend that, they are really good in doing remote diagnostic. It is really difficult to tell what is wrong without having access to the machine. Maybe certain registry entries have incorrect ACLs set so information is not stored where it is supposed to be. Maybe there is issue with AntiVirus (Karpersky seemed to be having issues with VS setup). Maybe files are corrupted on the DVD...

Does

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates\Web

exists? Are there any files?

This thread contains interesting advices:

The following worked for me:

Open the Options window in Visual Studio.
Select Projects and Solutions.
Change the Visual Studio user item template location to the folder where the standard templates are located ( C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\ItemTemplates ).

The "Item templates" folder was pointing to my "My DocumentsDocuments\Visual Studio 2005\Templates\ItemTemplates" folder by default. Now that I have made the change above I see all of the templates.

Why does it point to the "My Documents" folder by default? Going forward am I going to miss out on some features by looking at the "Program Files" directory for my templates?

Thank you so much for your time.

Try these steps I've tried so many diffrent things but nothing worked, but this did;

Install "VS80-KB915364-X86-ENU.exe" and then install "WebApplicationProjectSetup.msi"
