    ASPX Designer doesn't work

    If I create a new ASP.NET website and then click the [Designer] tab at the
    bottom the IDE freezes. Last night I uninstalled VS2008 and all other
    related installations (MVC framework etc), this morning I reinstalled VS2008
    and tried again and I still see the same behaviour!

    Can anyone think what I might need to do to fix this? I really need to get
    some work done this weekend and I need the designer to do it with :-(

    Thanks

      I had this problem - Expression web wouldn't load.
      For some reason repairing Office 2007 fixed it !
      I had other errors - Try creating a new user on yout system and see if it
      works under that account, or delete your Windows Profile (backup of course,
      as it contains your MyDocs folder).

      Visual Studio doesn't do a good job of uninstalling it's self. So any borked
      settings remain in your profile.

          Removed office, tested, reinstalled office, tested; unfortunately it still
          does not work at either point :-(

          Does anyone else have any ideas? This is very detrimental for my
          productivity. I'd appreciate *any* ideas of what to try at all, except
          reinstalling Windows which obviously is a last resort.


          Thanks

              Did you try creating a new user account and testing it?

              Also, when you uninstalled Visual Studio, did the "Visual Web Designer" get
              uninstalled? This is listed seperatly on my system in Add/Remove programs.
              Maybe that part of the program didn't get removed, and so didn't get
              replaced?

                  Hi Marc
                  Did you try creating a new user account and testing it?
                  Just tried, same problem there too.

                  Also, when you uninstalled Visual Studio, did the "Visual Web Designer"
                  get uninstalled?
                  I told VS to do a full installation.
                  This is listed seperatly on my system in Add/Remove programs. Maybe that
                  part of the program didn't get removed, and so didn't get replaced?
                  I don't see anything with that name in the add/remove list.

                      Actuall I just found something with a similar name. I uninstalled it and
                      then installed
                      D:\WCU\WebDesig nerCore

                      But now it is not in the list at all :-(

                          Uninstalling/reinstalling did nothing. However, performing a repair did the
                          trick!

                          Thanks for your time!
