Error Installing and Running C# Beta 2
Whenever I install C# Express Beta 2, I get an error message during the install process of C# Express (An error has occurred would you like to send an error report). The installation continues just fine. When I open C# after the installation completes, I can go to file > new project, but the templates listing is empty. If I try to open an old .sln or .csproj, I get another error message and C# crashes.
Here is a list of the things I've tried.
Uninstalling everything .net 2 related and reinstalling.
Uninstalling everything .net related and reinstalling (including .net 1.1).
Uninstalling everything and installing beta 2 from a CD.
Uninstalling everything, doing searches for any vs folders or keys in explorer or the registry and deleted those too, and reinstalling.
Using the menu option in c#, restored the default user options.
Each time, no matter what I do, this problem comes back.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Hmm I am not sure what's exactly wrong but I am probing.
When you look under c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework
what are the different directories you see there? Basically these directories are the version number of the .NET Framework that are installed on your system. I just want to be sure you are using the actual Beta2 bits rather than some CTP (which unfortunately) also show Beta2 in their headers.
Whats the exact error you get when you start a project? I'd suggest you post that error to the Product Feedback pages.

I have a bunch of stuff directly in that folder and the following subfolders:
v2.0.50215
v1.1.4322
v1.0.3705
I thought I uninstalled 1.1 and 1.0 so those may just be residue. They only contain config files and a dll or two it seems.
The error is just your generic everyday "x has encountered an error would you like to send an error report" message. I've used the built in submit feature to send the report.
