Guidance Automation Extensions - July 2007 CTP TemplateWizardInterface

Error

System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.TemplateWizardInterface, Version=9.0.0.0 ...

After installing "Guidance Automation Extensions"July 2007 CTP for "Visual Studio 2008 Beta 2" and making the changes for the "Smart Client Software Factory" to work with Beta 2 and installing it,I did find the solutions for SCSF soI tried to to enable it by using Guidance package manager it gave me this error.

WhenI went tothe assembly folder,I found thatI had 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.TemplateWizardInterface" version 8,

I don't know if version 9 exists and not installed or not

Workaround

But to solve this problem - go to the ...\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE folder then edit the file devenv.exe.config (first backup this file, so if something went wrong you can restore it) and remove this part below from the file and save it

Code Block

<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft.VisualStudio.TemplateWizardInterface" publicKeyToken="b03f5f7f11d50a3a" culture="neutral" />
<bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-8.9.9.9" newVersion="9.0.0.0" />

</dependentAssembly>

Hi Zaben.
Some versions of OrcasB2 contains the TemplateWizardInterface assembly compiled with the 9.0 version number that's why the gax installer adds that redirect, however the correct version is 8.0 and it seems that you have an OrcasB2 with the correct assembly version. This issue should be fixed in the RTM version.

thanks for your post.
