i recently installed the ajax control toolkit rls 6/2012 in vs2010 sp1 and everything seemed to work fine. however, i believe i inadvertantly changed something while moving projects and solution folders around and now have this error in my solution that
was previouly running fine:
Warning 1 Unable to update auto-refresh reference 'ajaxcontroltoolkit.dll'. Cannot find assembly '..\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Downloads\CodePlex\AjaxControlToolkit.Binary.NET4\AjaxControlToolkit.dll'
i also see that i can use the NuGet program to manage future installations/updates for me. is there a way to fix this installation, then uninstall the installation, then reinstall using NuGet?
you may have to open old application for minute changes so never uninstall any devlopment tools yes you may install new things which wont disturb current current development setup
i opened the AjaxControlToolkit.dll.refresh in Notepad.exe as suggested and clarified the path. the xml editor does not work. the file showed a relative directory:

Installation/Uninstallation of ajax is not recommended, you can directly add the DLL downloaded into your application.

Yes NuGet is a good way of managing third party dlls to your application.

Hi,
Yes, just copy and replace the old dll. And you could download the latest ajax control toolkit at: http://ajaxcontroltoolkit.codeplex.com/releases/view/90063.
uninstall

for the refresh problem, the dll was already the latest version (rls 6/2012). i found this link on google:
http://www.dotnetmonster.com/Uwe/Forum.aspx/vs-net-setup/2362/Unable-to-update-auto-refresh-reference-ajaxcontroltoolkit
i opened the AjaxControlToolkit.dll.refresh in Notepad.exe as suggested and clarified the path. the xml editor does not work. the file showed a relative directory:
..\..\Downloads\CodePlex\AjaxControlToolkit.Binary.NET4\AjaxControlToolkit.dll
to fix the problem, i removed the "..\..\" and replaced it with a hard coded path:
c:\users\philos\Downloads\CodePlex\AjaxControlToolkit.Binary.NET4\AjaxControlToolkit.dll
after restarting VS2010, the refresh warning is resolved!
for the uninstall question, does selecting "Reset Toolbox" on the toolkit toolbar remove all the toolkit files from the machine?
