VS 2008 crashes when I try to create a new wpf project

Visual Studio 2008 (90 day trial, team suite edition) crashes with
"Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 has encountered a problem and needs to
close...." message when I try to create a new wpf application project.
Also, loading an existing wpf project (the "hittest3d" demo) works, but the
program terminates when the system tries to display the test project main
window (ie. step into the program, debugging just stops at new window1()).

Possibly related, Microsoft Expression (trial version), which I assume uses
wpf, also crashes with a similar message at startup. I'm assuming something
is wrong with my .NET runtime installation?

Anyone else out there using 2008 with no problems?

I recently installed VS.NET 2003 After opening a project and leaving it open, after a certain period of time it crashes. It only does this when a project is open. The project that I've tried this with is *very* small and simple. One of the boxes that are displayed as part of the crashes references "devenv.exe" (the Visual Studio IDE executable). I've tried uninstall/reinstall. I have the latest .NET Framework SDK.

Hi, 1. Do I need to install "AjaxControlExtender.vsi" and to use "AJAX Control Toolkit Web Site" template when I create a new web site or I can just use "ASP.NET Web Site" and to add "Script Manager" control and have the same functionality. 2. Why when I try to drag for example "ConfirmButtonExtender" to the Designer it's refuses to accept it and I can only drag controls to the Source into the <form></formsection?

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
