Post by AmcAmx » Fri Jul 25, 2008 9:50 pm

I get the following Error during the install of the Client software.
"The system cannot find the file specified"

Any help on this would be appreciated !

ThanX,

If you run devenv.exe /setup from a command line do you get the same error?

What .NET frameworks do you have installed on your machine?

Do you have both VS2005 and VS2008 on the machine?

We have seen this error occur when VS2005 or VS2008 is uninstalled from the system and the registry paths aren't cleaned up so the installer thinks that VS is still installed. Does Devenv.exe exist at the following locations?

VS2005 path is: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\
VS2008 path is: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\
