Nasty VS.NET error.

When opening VS.NET after a new install some user would get errors and VS.NET would try to install and eventually fail.

If you look into the event log an error such as this is seen.

Detection of product '{E05F0409-0E9A-48A1-AC04-E35E3033604A}', feature 'Visual_Studio_.NET_Ent_Architect' failed during request for component '{FD153241-37EC-11D2-8892-00A0C981B015}'

The problem is because of some office components not properly registered.

To resolve the issue the following registry addition can be done.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common]
"UserData"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\UserInfo]
"UserInitials"=hex:00,00
"UserName"=hex:00,00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing Tools]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing Tools\Custom Dictionaries]
"1"="CUSTOM.DIC"


This should solve the issue.
