C# Project Type not present in Visual Studio 2005

+2 A:

This might seem like a dumb question, but did you ever create a C# project with that version? In other words, did you install the C# personality? Because, you know, C# is not fundamental to Visual Studio ;)

You don't need to reinstall. If you are sure C# should be installed, just try Repair. If you didn't install it before, you can modify the installation. Takes much less time than a complete re-install.

I think you did not include C# durting the time of installation? Restart the installation and add C# to it.

This is a work PC, I didn't do the install. This is why I am hoping to fix it without having to get our microlan guys to fix it. They are so damn slow to fix anything.

You need the installation CD. No need to reinstall. you just add to the existing one.

Yep, it was never installed. I guess I was confused, as the templates directory was present. After running the installer, it showed that C# was not installed.

Cool ;-) But honestly dint expect such a Q from a person with 1k+ rep until I saw your profile screen. I understand ;-)

You dont have to install C# when you install VS.

Also are you running a fill version of VS or express, the express editions contain only one technology.

From the screen shot I'd say you are running the full version as The express ones have a specific install for web stuff.

Reinstall VS and add C# to the list of things you want to install.
