Custom VS2008 Template being cached??

Hi all,

Not sure if this is the correct forum for this question or not.
I installled a vsi package from http://dotnetnuke.codeplex.com/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=30778 to get some DotNetNuke project and item templates in VS, but decided I wanted to customise them to my own needs.

However, not matter what I do with my new vsi package, it seems as though the vstemplate file has been cached - my new templates creates the project with the same folder structure and same items, even when I've made modifications in the new vstemplate file.

Am I missing something?
Is something being written to the registry when I run a vsi package?

Thanks in advance for your help,
Peter.

Hi Peter,

The project and item templates not installed in the users own Templates directory, (for example the ones under ...\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates) are indeed cached. If you modify, add, or remove any of the .ZIP files you can refresh the cached version by running devenv.exe with the command line switch /installvstemplates.

Sincerely,
Ed Dore
