BizTalk 2009/VS 2008 Creating project ‘project name’… project creation failed.

Just a quick post.  I hit this on my machine today whilst writing a quick sample.  When creating a BizTalk Project I got Creating project ‘project name’… project creation failed in the VIsual Studio dialog bottom left of the screen.  Changing the reg key referenced by Guru/Vinay in the BizTalk CPR blog fixes it https://blogs.msdn.com/biztalkcrt/archive/2009/08/21/visual-studio-2008-fails-to-create-open-biztalk-projects.aspx 

 

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\Projects\{FAE04EC0-301F-11d3-BF4B-00C04F79EFBC}]

"PossibleProjectExtensions"="csproj"   - Original VS install reg value. "PossibleProjectExtensions"="csproj;btproj" - Post Biztalk installation reg value

  I was running a loop of repairing BTS2009 Repair and VS2008 repair untill I saw this post. Updating "PossibleProjectExtensions"="csproj;btproj" solved the problem. And thanks for the extra tip on the 64 bit location.
