解决【the project file'xxxx'cannot be opened.the project ...】

解决【the project file'xxxx'cannot be opened.the project type is not supported by this installation.】

I found I had to do all the steps mentioned, namely

 

1) devenv /setup
2) regsvr32.exe "%vs80comntools%/../IDE/projectaggregator.dll"
3) Then download

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=8B05EE00-9554-4733-8725-3CA89DD9BFCA&displaylang=en

also called "Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 - Update to Support Web Application Projects"

 

It was probably all important, however crucially I also had to run the command line

installed WebApplicationProjectSetup.msi.
 

4) devenv /resetskippkgs

 

which is listed in the rather unfriendly error message that Visual Studio displays.

Obviously at some point I had clicked the 'Yes' button and not the 'No' button when trying to get this to work.

 

I did not have the "web application" option for new projects, so I installed

http://download.microsoft.com/download/9/0/6/906064ce-0bd1-4328-af40-49dca1aef87c/WebApplicationProjectSetup.msi

and that fixed my issue with loading the .csproj

 

之前是因为先装了VS2008再装VS2005的时候打开web项目报“the project file'xxxx'cannot be opened.the project type is not supported by this installation.”的错误，按上面的几个步骤走，问题解决，希望可以帮到同样问题的人~
